Did the post office ruin my birthday?
I don’t think it did so you see
Cos next week I’ll have even more presents
And more love and attention on me
Don’t be upset that you’ve failed me
I’ll open a bottle of bubbly instead
And have avocado toast for my breakfast
With an extra slice of buttery bread
No wrapping paper to dispose of
No thank yous that need to be said
Just WhatsApp happy birthday messages
And a family hug instead
