It's your birthday

by Babs Stevenson
(Scotland)

It’s your birthday, you can:

Have a bit of a laugh
With a crazy, giraffe
Or take tea for two
With a gnu.
You can eat with your feet
On sugar beet and sweetmeat
Delivered to you from France.

You can circle the moon
In a hot air balloon
Or eat slices of cake
On a lake.
Strut your stuff in the buff
Til enough is enough
And you end your day with a dance.
