"A Birthday Grant" ($50)

 A Birthday “Grant”

(Ulysses S., that is)

This “Grant” is for you

To use as you wish

To buy yourself something

That’s birthday-ish.

Perhaps a nice dinner

Will just hit the spot

Or a book or CD

That’s currently hot.

A wonderful day

Is wished for you--

And health and good fortune

     The whole year through!        

Sharon Walrond Harris
