Happy Days Are Here

It's the holiday season

A perfect time

To celebrate

Your birthday

With food and friends

And

A bottle of wine

Accompanied by lots of smiles

And

Laughter

Reminiscing about the wisdom found in wrinkles

So

Happy Birthday

With

Many more to celebrate with us all

A Dancing Birthday

For every birthday

People say there is a wrinkle

On the face

But for a dancer

There is just another year

A new recital

And

The show must go on

Dancers

Only remember

Wrinkles on dance shoes

That are getting broken in

Going Crazy

Have you ever had a word or phrase

In your head

And

Not be able to get out of your mind

It's like having an insect

Flying in and out

Between your ears

Making a buzzing sound

Driving you crazy

While

You are sitting there

Your head throbbing

Wishing

You could yank it out

Tearing it out

From its roots

And

Flashing it down the drain

With a smile on your face

As it disappears into the abyss

Escaping

I was just wondering

About you

The sky above

Always seems gray

When you are not around

I miss the way you look

When

A bubble bee brushes

Up against your eye lash

Checking

To see if it can rock your world

Before

It drive bombs a mosquito

That just landed on your forearm

And

Fighting to get loose from your golden strands

Before it dies

Intestinal Foreplay

Soap bubbles

When digested

Properly

Cleanses the

Intestines

Birthday Trilogy

Sixty the New Fifty

The day is done

And

The sun is coming up

Over the horizon

The new born dawn

Is just over the hill

Ready to shine

Its rays of sun shine

Over the beautiful rainbow

Of your forty birthday

As it remembers

That 60 is the new 50

When it comes to birthdays

Did you know

The World is much older now

Than

When I was born

And that makes me happy

Because

I will always be younger

A Peanut Butter Birthday

Just remember

That a simple poem

Sticks to the soul

Easier than peanut butter

Sticks to bread

And is never forgotten

So here is to your health

And

May you have

Many more birthdays

Passion Fruit

I see the passion in your eyes

As you walk into the room

 I feel the heat from your heart

 When I come near you

 Our friendship is growing

 By leaps and bounds

 When I make you smile

 It is

 Like watching a flower blossom from a seed

Our friendship has become the fruit

 That binds our souls together onto one

The Bite of the Flea

The spice of life

Comes

From the sweetness

 Created

 When someone smiles

 On a cloudy day

 Without any hope of sunshine

 Peeking through the mist

 Hanging over the head of the flea

 Trying to suck the blood from your body

So It can live to feed its babies

But

 The good that can be found

 Is in the discovery of an anti-itch cream

Allowing

 The scratching that is done bearable

The Make Up of a Soul Mate

Have you ever thought about

How a glass holds water

Filling each and every molecule

Becoming transparent

Forming another glass within the glass

If you have

Then you know

How it feels being a soul mate

Both become one

Just like the water and the glass

Never

Over stepping the boundaries of the other

But instead

Complimenting and strengthening each other

Allowing

The water to be cooler and fresher

And the glass stronger and bigger

Each becoming a perfect fit for the other

Separately

The water has no place to stand and the glass is empty

But together

They quench the thirst of an un-civilized world

Scary Spaghetti

The spaghetti worm

Is out to get you

So beware

Where you step

Walk gently

Among the weeds and trees

Otherwise

The spaghetti worm will get you

It will eat you up from the inside out

It will devour you

Slicing you up with its tiny scissor sharp teeth

Never letting you go

Not until you smile and get an attack of the giggles

Stop

Look

It's behind you

Ready to attack you
