Birthday in Uist.
Its 10am, cannot make a cuppa,
banned from the dining room,
secret ‘goings-on’, cannot wait,
call from daughter ‘not yet!’
Coloured balloons, poppers,
string & homemade cards,
daughter & partner
chorusing happy birthday!
Wish granted, in Uist
on this special day,
enjoying the feeling,
& sharing the happiness.
