me for permission. The first funny poem is actually complimentary. This is notable, as so many poems go negative in their attempt at humor.
Born Yesterday You weren't born yesterday. That is a fact. One I can tell you without losing tact.
Each day you get older, and now what I hear, enough days have passed that it's now one more year.
So here's "Happy Birthday." That time? Gee, who took it? It doesn't much matter as you do not look it.

The next birthday rhyme is also complimentary -- at least tot he birthday boy or girl (man or woman)! It still has a bit of a surprise ending to give the poem a bit of punch. Is the narrator telling it straight? Or is this a back-handed poem?
Some People Some people age very well, like fine wine. Some fall apart, or get curves in their spine.
Some lose their teeth and are missing their hair. Some look quite fit, I must say it's not fair.
Some lose their mind and just babble about, losing their way. . . do not know in from out.
But you are the lucky, the fairest. It's true. (Because it's your birthday, I say this to you.)

The next birthday rhyme, "Special Day," wishes the birthday "boy" or "girl" a most wonderful day, but then hits them with a little reminder at the end.
Special Day Your birthday is a special day when everything should go your way. The sun should shine. The birds should sing. Your friends should call; your phone should ring.
Your numbers, in the lottery, should yield, at least, a shopping spree. your boss should tell you not to work
(unless he is a loathsome jerk).
Your love will take you out to dine and order an expensive wine. Your life will be much bigger, bolder. Just don't forget you're one year older.

The following birthday rhyme is perfect for those who always try to forget their birthday each year - as if forgetting it would keep them younger. Silly!
Don't Deny It Each person as a birthday. So please do not deny it. Instead it's time to celebrate. Have fun. Oh please, just try it. Indulge in cake and ice cream or a little bit of wine. Relax among your loved ones and you'll soon be feeling fine. Each person has a birthday. That's a fact that's ever true. Today's the day to celebrate: that birthday boy (girl) in you!

The last birthday rhyme reminds us that EVERY DAY is a birthday. For someone. Somewhere.
Every Day Every day's a birthday for some people on this planet. When we're getting older there are times we'd like to ban it.
But that would be so silly, wrong decision, a mistake. For if you miss your birthday, you'll miss out on birthday cake.
And even if you skip it, it won't matter. So I'm told, despite the lack of cake and fun, you'll still be growing old.
