The Gift of Wishes

Here lies before you a birthday dirge
A wish to consume until you splurge
May it be to to all the cake you consume
Or all the hell you raise in the room

Lift your glasses it's time for a toast
 To the wickedest writer we all love the most
May this year be full of magic and folly
A dear birthday wish from Holly to Magaly


"Be grateful your not dead" pun on Gratful Dead Art

I do believe this is what the creative mind looks like a continuous kaleidoscope of bloom and grow, and some of us keep it going long after the heart beats and the grey matter solidifies. But today we celebrate birth and life so go and give Magaly Guerrero our host of Dark Poetry for the Cruellest Month some birthday love & laughter!

  1. This is such a delightful poem and my favourite line,"Or all the hell you raise in the room". A brilliant depiction with the image too. Brilliant!
