"Ordinary life does not interest me. I seek only the high moments. I am in accord with the surrealists, searching for the marvelous." ~Anais Nin

Poetry Wednesday #58

My niece's first birthday last week.  We had a terrible time finding a card that wasn't hideous, so I made my own using some faery notecards I bought years ago and writing a message inside.  This is the little poem I wrote a a message.  It's a little Hallmark-y, but, whatever.



For my most magnificent and wonderful niece, M— S—, on the occasion of her first birthday:

It's been fun to watch you grow
And learn the things you didn't know.
Of course, it will be more fun still—
O! Just the thought gives me a thrill—
To watch as you grow bigger yet,
And cast a wider knowledge net.
It's so much fun because it's you,
And you bring fun to all you do!
