Before my birthday I sit and stare
I almost run away from human compare.
I remember the ones I've lost
and let me tell you it feels like an additional cost .
Am I a year older
or are the years just getting bolder?
I should be happy I know
I've been blessed many times in a row.
But I can't help but get emotional
so instead I offer my creator a great devotional.
Before my birthday I avoid human interactions ,
because nobody else can offer even a fraction...
A fraction of what my creator has done for me .
Not even a fraction of the pure love he bestows on me.
So...
Before my birthday I need to speak to him first
And after hours of talking he makes sure he quenches my thirst .
I set my goals
so that he can keep me on my soles
and without asking he makes sure to overflow my bowls.
Before my birthday I need to call him
It's cost free ,no minutes needed and unlimited time , the connection is good...
Might as well gather some food.
He'll listen without asking for a dime.
And when I'm done he'll kiss me on my forehead and gently tuck me into bed.
Now I assure you that my soul is always well fed .
Before my birthday .
