Haiku Happy Birthday

Haiku Happy Birthday

Born on the sixteenth

Hot June is my birthday month

Mama rent the pool

 

 

It’s my birthday splash

Coconut tanning lotions

Fragrance fills the air

 

 

Candles on my cake

I blow, but they all stay lit

Little brother laughs

 

 

Yes, he made the switch

Trick candles just won’t blow out

My cheeks turn bright red

 

 

Gifts glued together

Oh what a birthday crisis

Brother laughs again

 

 

I’ll see he gets his

July is his birthday month

I’ve two weeks to plan

 

 

Unwrap all his gifts

Switch boy stuff with Barbie dolls

Panty hose and bras

 

 

Put glue in the rose

He will insist on that piece

He’s not laughing now

 

 

Aren’t birthdays such fun

I am older and wiser

Taught him a lesson
