Analysis of Party Time Birthday



Time Out: Party-Time, Self-imposed!

Why not?
Time to celebrate
Excite the spirits ever so often
Nourish my soul
Not a hedonistic dance
Taste buds sharp
Rich, ripe colorful odor
Of peaches, nuts, wine
The zesty fruity smell
From liquor, the dress-up
Dress down, my party in latest fashion
Gather my friends; My birthday!
Cooked beef
Swiss imported cheeses
Blueberries and raspberries
Boysenberries
Fresh lox on fragrant warm bagels
Sherbet, ice-cream of many flavors
A special time of remembrance
And laudatory speeches
Drama ending in comedy
Stories and vignettes
Entertainment, music
Magicians, cards, gifts
Riotous poems
Slideshows and artwork
Lyrical songs, violin, piano music
Surely it could be arranged?
Forget about the outside world
There'll be plenty of time
For war, recession, disease
Not now! Not today!
A void filled by me!
My own barrel of fun birthday party
Any time I desire
At a moment's notice
