A poem a day - Day 18

Surprise 60th Birthday Party!

 

Hush, as 100 excited people wait,

party poppers poised,

our nerves fizz like the champaign,

faces brimming with grins.

 

Footsteps from the long hallway.

Then..

 

A cackle of laughter that everyone knows;

she's on to us, she's seen something,

but not all, as she bursts into the room

to a cacophony of cheers and

bangs and bright string!

Happy Birthday we all sing!
