You're the writing on my invitation
the reason for my celebration
you're the surprise that makes my party,
the keeper of my eyes upon the door.

You are my inspiration
the reason for my favors
you are the streamers from the rafters
the helium that fills up my balloons.

You are my favorite flavor
the peppermint in my candy
the sugar on my lips
the p-nut butter pieces,
broken into bits.

You are the colors of my ribbons
the chocolate in my swirl
you are the shaker of my sprinkles
that decorate my sundaes.

You are the one that shares my scoop
the hands that hold my spoon
the fire that lights my candles
and every wish I make.

You're the champaign in my punch
the icing on my cake
the proportion of my slice
the china pattern on my plate.

You are the stirrer of my temptation
the sunshine on my cone
the trickle of my fascination
melting slowly down.

You are the silver lining
inside a velvet box
the gift of your mere presence,
is my diamond in the sky.

Well, this is wonderful
Makes me kinda sad though ... most I ever get, is being told ... I'm the fly in their soup

Larry~ I figured the time had come to tell you my real feelings.  *tweak*     
Thanks for reading and enjoying.

Rex~ It's nice to see you here again, and thank you for your cute reply.
I guess it's better to swim in the soup than get stuck in the frosting,
just chalk it up to a day in the life of a fly!!

Dulcinea~ Thanks, no telling where I'll end up but you can be sure
I'm running with it alright!!

Sandra~ It was fun to write, nothing like a virtual party of one!!
Thank you and Happy Easter!

Duncan~ Yep,  it is sweet, kinda like finding the golden egg!
I have to love the big prize!!  
Thanks Duncan  

Mr Tabin~ Thank you for enjoying my serenades, they're quite the assortment huh?
One day she is surrendering the next day she's partying down!
I look at it this way, no one can ever accuse me of getting stuck in a rut!

Nancy~ You are so sweet with your replies, and no you didn't miss much.
I was dreaming is all, but someday I am going to throw a party to end all parties.....wooo hoo...watch out now!!  Happy Happy Easter to you!!
