To celebrate a birthday
Some want
candles and a cake.
To others, a
display like that
Would be a
big mistake.
There are
people who will travel
To a far-off
special place
For a
festive celebration
That a
birthday can embrace.
Others want
a quiet dinner
In a
restaurant they know,
Maybe
followed by an evening
At a concert
or a show.
Many more
would be quite happy
With an
in-home favorite meal
And a T.V.
show or movie,
Birthdays
being no big deal.
We all
choose our ways of marking
One year’s
march around the sun,
For each birthday’s
a reminder
A new older
year’s begun.
