  What is a Birthday ?
  When I’m young,
  it’s cake and candles.
  Can I blow them out – You bet !
  When I’m in my teens and twenties,
  an excuse for going wild.
  Shall we have a noisy party – oh yes ! I’m not a child !
  When I reach the 30/40 mark,
  I can still have a good old time
  I’ll try anything..
  today is mine !
  But when I’m 50/60
  A quick look round and sh..u..sh – did anybody notice
  I’m having another ….. !
  Then 70’s descend1
  and it’s time to reminisce – remember when,
  and how and who ?
  Oh tish !
  When I’m 80, maybe 90,
  a birthday means I’m getting older
  and there’s a chilling2 in my bones.
  But I’d love a cake – with candles – like I had, when I was young !
  ? Mags Scorey 1984
