Twenty-second

Did I gather them all ?
According to my list,
I did.

This day is special,
I'll make it even more so.
It is my duty to her.

I'll bake her favourite cake.
It'll make her day.
It'll make her happy.

I open the oven,
Put the cake in it,
Then take another look at the calendar.

I get dreamy,
Until the timer stops
And the cake is baked.

I put candles on the cake,
Light them all,
And take a look at the calendar.

Today's date:
September,
Twenty-second.

I breathe deeply
And wish her
A happy birthday.

She smiles,
I smile back,
I wake up.

Notes/trivia

A poem based on a dream. In fact, I wrote quite a few of these, as the dreams were a nice source of inspiration.
