free verse #2.

Today’s the Day

January 20, 1993, is the date you were born.

Today is January 20, 2011 when you are turning 18

and becoming a senior.

I don’t know what to do today.

I made you a present but I keep on wondering

If you would like them, would you accept it,

would you come out, or would you take me back home?

So many thoughts in my head today

and you even came out in my dream last night!

I hope you come out tonight

when I call you on the phone.

Or just come out to see me.

Please answer just this once

so I can show you how much I like you.

Happy Birthday and I hope

I can say this to you every year.

“Happy Birthday.”
