Birthday Blues Poem by Opeyemi Borisade

I was too engrossed in my sleep
To notice the sun crawl up over me
Its sweet kiss on my bare skin
lured me into the unfolding today

I arose from a sheet of purple
Apparelled in strips of fine gold
I stepped into a pool of fine cream
Flanked by a galaxy of stars

Out there is a rainbow without a rain
Such as held me back in my dreams at dusk
Wonder what makes today garnished with such wonder memoir?
It gave me the opportunity to have you!
