Thank you
As the week comes to it’s end
thoughts and feelings rise,
all the images flood my mind
and flash before my eyes.
Starting with a bouquet of flowers,
lunch and then a kiss.
With no thought of what was coming,
How could it get better than this?!
Flowers arrive the following day
blush fills my chest and cheeks,
Speechlessness takes me over
this smile is here for weeks.
Feeling about as special
as one could ever feel,
we take the night to bingo
and the spinning of the wheel!
With our wages in and stampers ready
she calls out O sixty eight,
I hunted through my numbers
and BINGO was my fate!!
My beautiful flowers belted tight into the seat,
I head off home to bed.
Looking forward to tomorrow
and all that lies ahead.
“Ill scoop you up at noon,” he says
All dressed in maroon and white,
Not forgetting my Chuck T’s
Off to the game to fight the fight!
Meeting friends and family,
with food and such a view.
Even though we didn’t come away with the win,
I enjoyed every minute spent with you.
Driving home the clock strikes 12
My birthday is finally here!
I didn’t jump up and down and scream
but I’m sure it was still hard to steer.
Got home late and off to bed
excited for the coming day,
a goodnight kiss with lasers
This is already the best birthday.
Waking up to balloons and flowers
a beautiful blend of orange, white and red
She yells at me, “Hey! I’m bringing you coffee,
so get back into bed!”
Spent the morning with my girls
Coffee, gifts and one handsome boy,
This is the life everyone deserves
one completely full of Joy.
Headed off to meet the crew
for brunch and then to church,
I cannot wait to hug my preacher
and share with my friends my search.
What a gift it was to have them there
knowing it just wasn’t their scene,
but because they love me
they made it there with me.
Escorted by a sick race car
we made it back to our place,
for more talks and chill time
before we head on to the race.
It’s prison time and we’re all there
handcuffed to the wall,
yelling clues and numbers
trying not to stall.
Unlocking lock by lock
we figured out the code,
We reached the final puzzle piece
And cracked the final mode!
The eight of us escape the rooms
and all in record time,
with almost five minutes left to spare
this, was an organized crime!
High fives and pictures before we eat
Prison breaks can be rough,
Our appetites are at a high
Finishing our meal wasn’t tough!
Sparklers come from around the corner
sitting on the chocolatey-ists of cakes,
the Happy Birthday song begins
Laughing the tears back is what it takes.
I blew out the candles to make a wish
but they all lit up and grew,
tricky little things they are
Little did they know it had already come true.
The night kept getting better
with each hour passing by,
we headed to the music
All on our own special high!
Stopping first to drop off the cake
we headed to the car,
he said to have a seat inside
then we’ll head over to the bar.
So I did and as I sat,
there was a small gift box,
He said “Happy Birthday”
as I’m sitting there in shock.
I opened up the gift
saying, ‘wow you’ve done too much,”
“I had to get you something,” he said
As I pulled THE necklace from the clutch.
My eyes lit up and OMG
I put it on right away,
how did I get so lucky
to find someone this way.
It was the necklace I’ve been wanting
but never justified to buy,
He got it for me without a question
I’m beyond impressed with this guy.
My heart is full of love and joy,
I can’t express it any other way
I feel so blessed to have these people
To share with me this day.
Finishing up the night with great music
a gum stuck dollar on the wall.
We head off home in the super moon light,
Feeling so blessed to have you all.
I’m so grateful for this special day and week
for more love I ever knew,
The only words that capture this feeling...
Thank you.
