 BIRTHDAYS THAT WAY

Hip hip hurrah, the way birthdays appear

There again and again

Repeatedly like a cheer

Sometimes boisterous some times tame

Come raise a glass,  the way birthdays appear

Sneaking in with face lines

And bodies shaped like pear

With streamers and buntings

And friends ever so dear

To eat cake in slices

Circles around the sun, the way birthdays appear

  3. So enjoyable... and that image has become so engrained with every Swede as a summer party... and the raising of glasses. All the persons on the image were artist colleagues of Kroger
