A birthday,
No party, no cake,
No friends,family to celebrate,
A rainy day,
With a splitting headache,
Bills to pay, money to generate,
Me, an orphan, in a leaking apartment,
No one remembered,
Not me myself,
Until --
A knock at my door allotment,
Like worms were seen by a bird,
I felt fortunate, delightful, and compelled,
At seeing a package with candles at my doorstep!
