Birthday Billet-Doux To My Cherry Pie Poem by Godson Smith

My Queen of Sheba!
How I cherish your beauty
How quick I become sober
When the sight of you makes me giddy

The susurrus of the birds on the tree
Is reminiscent of the sweet beats of your heart
Your mellifluous voice sets my mind free
When the worries of the world make me trite

Your pert nose is a monument
That stands as a channel of life
Each breath you exhale gives me strength
A wonderful gift you give

Your love shields me from trouble
As one of the factors of appurtenance
That gives answers to mysteries I grapple
And elicit in me allegiance to divine ordinance

This is a billet-doux of your lovey-dovey pet
To you, my haven of love
To celebrate your day of birth
When blessings come to you in droves

Happy birthday yummy cherry!
Happy birthday cherry pie!
