Technically, not a great poem but one I use to keep track of all the birthdays (which I still manage to forget !). If you would like to send me a birthday card then please read on to find the date !
 
Birthdays

It's a quiet start to the year,
After all that festive fun,
There's only Chloe & Mary,
Both on January twenty-one.
 
Laura's is on the nineteenth,
And Alex is February seven,
Dad was born on the twenty ninth,
And now he has them in heaven.
 
We've got Aimee on the fifth,
And Angie was born on March ten,
Big Mick on the twenty sixth,
Back when men were truly men.
 
Then we come to April,
And find there's only Sean,
Again on the seventh,
The day that he was born.
 
And then comes Zoe and Mum,
Born on the ninth and twelfth of May,
Two very special girls,
What more is there left to say ?
 
With B on the first, Harry & Paul on the sixth,
June is so much fun,
There's Nicki on the twelfth,
And Katie is turning twenty one.
 
There's Anna on the second,
And Michael on the eighth follows you,
Lee is on the twentieth,
And Leanne July twenty two.
 
August is a quiet affair,
And parties are sparse on the ground,
There's only Matthew on the seventh,
And he never comes around !
 
And September is the brothers affair,
Ian on the twelfth and the seventh is yours truly,
One of the guys is a charming chap,
And the other is quite unruly.
 
Sarah is on the twenty ninth, 
And Melissa is October twenty five,
Karen is sweet sixteen,
But the only one you could call an old wive !
 
Robert is on the first, 
John is the nineteenth of November,
And now I haven't got an excuse,
And now I'll have to remember.
 
There's Jack and Julio,
Let's call them Christmas men,
One born December twenty two,
And the other December ten.
 
And that has wrapped it up,
But this will soon be out of date,
Because the one thing this family knows,
Is how to propagate !
