Today Jeny is having a bouncy birthday blast <br />At the table will be included a distinctly canine cast <br />Denver, a delightful, dapper dynamo of origin half chihuahua <br />And Alfie, his maltese mate who helps him create brouhaha <br /> <br />Jeny's creative panache will ensure they look their best <br />With matching cape and peaked cap is how they'll both be dressed <br />They'll partake in the candle blowing ritual and munch on a birthday slice <br />Although Denver will think Alfie's piece is the one that tastes more nice <br /> <br />Alfie will commence the feisty fiesta with a piercing, strident yap <br />Giving a clear, sharp signal for when everyone should clap <br />Although in truth he could be barking because he thought he heard a cat <br />With Alfie it's not always clear as to what he's barking at <br /> <br />Denver will present Jeny with a chewed up, spat up ball <br />And Jeny will graciously roll it smoothly down the hall <br />She loves her darling duo, and they love in reciprocation <br />They're both honoured to be part of Jeny's special birthday celebration <br /> <br />(Sydney, Australia - 2010)<br /><br />Alessandra Liverani<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/jeny-s-birthday-poem-humour/
