It's My Birthday
I'll blow out the sun if I want to.
Elaborate birthday
Celebrations have nothing on the
Likes of this one.
I get to blow out the sun, the
Perfect gift.
Satisfying a long held
Endeavor.
**********************************************************************
This year I get to celebrate my 37th birthday in celestial style. The eclipse is on my birthday, the path of totality is crossing the town I was born in and totality starts at the time I was born. My hope is to blow out my candle when the sun goes out. I just have to pray for clear skies. Here's hoping!

May I ask when your birthday is? I am wondering if it is a challenge inspired ECLIPSE on your birthday or a total eclipse coming my way? I have read nothing about it in Sweden where I live. I loved your acrostic poem either way!
