July 32nd

Celebrations, Memories, Poetry 1 Minute
Happy birthday to my sister, Patricia! It’s been a long standing joke that when I was little, she playfully told me her birthday was on July 32nd. This is last year’s birthday poem that I wrote to commemorate both the occasion of that moment (which BTW was the day the photo below was taken) and her birthday. 


“It’s that time of year when I’m always confused,
I remember your quote since the days of my youth;
It’s the date of your birthday, over which I will reckon,
Is it August the 1st OR July 32nd?


Whatever the month, the day or the year,
The thought of that memory, to my heart is dear;
To my sista, Patricia, I wish you the best,
For this special birthday and each one that comes next.”
