Candles on the Cake

It's someone's birthday today.
Someone very special to me.
And she is happy.

And that is perfect.

She had a surprise meal and a cake of her own. She opened presents and cried with joy on my shoulder. She is beautiful and shining.

And I love her.

I pushed the candles in two groups into the top of the wonderfully rich cake and lit them. We sang Happy Birthday to her, and she smiled that smile into my eyes before blowing them out.

I got my wish, Sweetheart. Did you?


Happy Birthday, Jennifer.
I hope it was as wonderful a day as you deserve.
