To my aunt Wanda on her birthday

My aunt Wanda's birthday was yesterday, and I wrote her the following poem:

My aunt Wanda

To my aunt Wanda, it is her birthday today
She is so lovely and fair
Sunshine is
The colour of her hair.

We share things with each other
About our lives, it’s true,
Like my mother, she understands me
A fact I don’t have to prove.

She knows me like a book when I’m feeling down
I don’t have to tell her anything
Because that is the wonderful thing about being close
You don’t have to say a thing.

We read the same books
We listen to similar music
Two of them I think are the most fundamental things
That a relationship is based, should be shared with the public.

Though we aren’t necessarily happy
It’s a comfort to know
That when I need a fresh mind
I’ll know where to go.

The summers we spend together
The laughter that we share
Love is a beautiful thing
Everyone should care.

We live right next door
It’s a pleasure to know
That when I need her
She’ll never say no.

So that is why she is special
Homage to her I pay
Happy Birthday my aunt Wanda,
May you enjoy your day!
