The Cake ~~ NaPoWriMo 2022, Day One
A Cake Lover Tells
My favorite
A cake with candles
Candles burning brightly
Quickly blow them out
Ones for me to blow
But first I make a wish
A wish I'll want to come true
Birthday spent with you
Will happen I know
'Cause you always do
You'll find I'm running away
So then you run with me
And bring my cake along
["Birthday at Age 12"]

This is such a sweet little poem! Thanks for sharing.
I love this jaunty poem! I wish the protagonist joy in both cake and companion.
Oh, yes, please. May there always be cake and wishes that come true. Lovely poem and what a beautiful granddaughter you have. Thanks for sharing. I bless you and here's a wish for your speedy recovery. I mean speedy: to not be able to taste cake? Not a good thing. Be well. xo
So beautiful.....the cake and the company too
An excellent wish!
I hope your wish comes true!
So very sweet. I want to have my cake and my wish too! This is Karin/Manicddaily. I may end up posting anonymously as I sometimes have trouble with Google! TAKE CARE!
Google has hurt me too on email, but I've learned the system fairly well for the rest.
Their search engine knows me very well as well.

Cakes with burning candles--waiting for wishes--are the very best. I hope your granddaughter's birthday was perfect. I hope you got to taste the cake.
sweet as cake, Jim ~
Good luck with NaPoWriMo... it's really quite an effort to write 30 days on the trot!
What a lovely poem!
Very sweet poem, Jim!
