Caress, caress, and very close to granny, <br />Give a pretty lovely rose to granny, <br />Sweet are flowers, sweeter are the buds, <br />Fly round her like the tweeting birds, <br />She likes butterflies dancing on her face, <br />Caress, caress and enjoy pink glace. <br /> <br />Darkness of aging needs twinkles and shines, <br />We know your taste and your favorite dines, <br />With all the stars Oh Moon! Come tonight, <br />Cress, caress, we shall enjoy your sight, <br />We shall sing and dance and dine with delight, <br />You can make our home so lovely and bright. <br /> <br />Your granny is famous for her lovely dishes, <br />Have blessings sweethearts and hearty wishes, <br />You have forgotten it so let me remind, <br />How painful is old age how cruel and unkind! <br />It's birthday of your granny she needs gift of love, <br />Run like a tiger or you may fly like a dove, <br /> <br />But you must come tonight otherwise old clay! <br />She will not celebrate her lonely birthday! !<br /><br />Akhtar Jawad<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-tearful-invitation/
