Birthday Wish Poem by Donald R Wolff JR

Today it is my Birthday
I get to make a wish
No silly toys for this young boy
I only want a kiss

No, not from my grandma
Her lips look like a fish
Plus the color she puts on her face
Can glue a broken dish

Maybe I'll get lucky
The girls will give me more than one
If I make a game of it
The girls will kiss me just for fun

Today it was my Birthday
The girls would not give me a kiss
Instead, my mom gave me a puppy
With a tongue that likes to lick

I named her, Little Tickles
Mom said, 'licks are a dog's kiss'
Till then I never thought of it
I got my Birthday wish
