Everybody likes their birth date to be remembered
Especially those who pretend not to care
Secretly hoping that someone will remember
Here I have the birthday person waking up on the special day marked boldly on the calendar
singing and whistling happily while washing themselves
getting ready for this special day
He opens the door expectantly ..............
Complete indifference..................
Nobody has remembered
They continue to read the newspaper and study the cereal box!
The disappointment is enormous
Nobody has remembered!!
Nobody!!
But we can see the hidden present
and
Suddenly everyone jumps up
The newspaper falls to the floor
The cereal box is knocked over spilling flakes on to the floor
Presents appear from under and behind
and more well wishers appear at the door
”Surprise!”
“Happy birthday to you”
and
“Many happy returns” fill the air
