plucked a star
from the ether
to set aside,
not on some shelf
to gather dust
next to last years
bestseller or some
forgotten knick knack
but a special place
awaiting the day
she would set
in my sky
warming all my horizons
in a luminous autumn glow...
happy birthday my love!

I love romance! It certainly works its magic in our house!
Lots of love to the birthday gal - my hubby always finds a card with a badge - this year it read "The World's greatest wife" I wore it with pride!
Great 55 as ever! I hope mine makes you smile.

Love it Brian! Krispy Kreems would suffice for me as well! Blessings! Happy Birthday to the wife!
That's gorgeous. No idea what a Krispy Kreme doughnut is (being UK based) but it sounds very rich.
Wishing her (and you) a sweet birthday celebration.
"warming all your horizons" made me all warm and fuzzy.
Brilliant stuff, dude.
Aaaw that is beautiful! What a wonderful way to use 55 words. :-)

Happy birthday to your beautiful wife! May she continue to be blessed each and every day. That sounds like an awesome cake, take a picture if you can I would love to see it. Hopefully you will have a clear night filled with stars so you can count the blessings of each other among them....
I was going to comment on the lovely poem & say happy birthday, but now all I can do is stare into space & drool. I would like a cake of Krispy Kreme donuts. I'll have to tell Dr. M - but then we'd have to have a party because if there aren't other people to help eat them I would eat them ALL LOL.
You're just a big ol' softie, ain'cha? Beautiful birthday poem, my friend! :P
Ha! I'm glad I stopped back...there's a picture now! Delish!
Hope T has a great B-Day!
I hope T has a stupendous day. It's great that you honor the star of your life.
Good people were born on that date. Tomorrow is my birthday too. Ha.
Happy Birthday to your lady xand beautifully written, a romantic note

A donut cake! That's an interesting idea. I think I'll make one some time out of double chocolate donuts.
You are too, too sweet! Love that cake! Yum!
Happy Birthday!
I hope I am not too late XD~
Have a wonderful day!=P
And lovely cake :3~ and that is really wonderful and romantic ;D~
Happy Birthday to a lucky lady. I am sure you must have some flaws, but you are so romantic!!!
how lovely a verse. happy birthday to your wife :)
And you are the most romantic husband ever! Enjoy your idyll! Wish it wasn't so hard to comment on blogger or I'd do it more often, but know that I do read!
Sweet...in so many ways.
What a romantic you are! This is a lovely poem, and the cake of Krispy Kreams are just what a girl ordered!!
My gosh you are such a romantic! Lucky girl. Blessings to you both and may you spend her birthday joyfully....
A crispy creme cake! Seriously! I am now so disoriented I can't think. My heart is racing. How can I work with that on my mind. Happy Birthday to your wife.
I hope she had a wonderful birthday, Brian. Cheers to you both!

What a creative birthday cake; my husband would love it,for doughnuts are his favorite! Happy Birthday to your love. Happy Weekend to both of you! :) heartspell
Hi! Brian...
Happy (belated) Birthday! to "three" (women) in your life, but really she is just "one"...
...your wife, friend, and mother of your children...Here's "wishing" and "hoping" that you share many more birthdays
together!
DeeDee ;-D
Brian said,"tonight I will build a cake out of Krispy Kreme doughnuts...
Hey! Brian,
Hmmm...Got Milk?!?
Oh, man, oh man...way to put my husband in the doghouse.
My birthday was sept 21, when was your fair lady's?
Oh you're so romantic!
Happy Birthday to your love.
She's a lucky lady. :)
Beautiful. The cake looks AWESOME!
Best wishes to T for a wonderful birthday and for the coming year to bring peace and joy to you and your family.
oh my god, that is the most delicious cake i have seen in a while!
happy birthday dear, may you enjoy your day, good post brian :)
wishing her the happiest of birthdays! And how cool that you named a star after her, Mr Romantic... & Lucky Lady
I love it.
My favorite part is where it says it wasn't meant to gather dust "next to last year's bestseller".
Very sweet.
Thanks for doing Friday 55! :)
Mine's been posted here since last night, but it's taken me this long to visit and leave comments. Sorry about that.
very sweet. God gave me an autumn sweetie, too. I named a star after him, also. I wonder where that certificate is - that was 15 years ago (thanks for the memory) btw, love the donut cake. they closed the krispy kreme by us - very sad.
Well I guess my Saturday post is you then...Thanks for reading my Friday 55. Hope your week goes well
Beautiful cake! I love it :) Loved the poem, too :) She's a lucky woman.
Nice. You are an amazing husband, we can tell.
ah...every woman (and man?) would swoon over this poem.
:-) that cake gives me a sugar headache just looking at it-a truly sweet gift.
Happy one T- Bri that woman is a loved woman.
named a star?? you are a star
I guess I can't complain I got the moon
Moonie glow
Nice! Happy birthday to T. I am sure that she will like that cake a lot. I appreciate your type of thoughts for your wife. I love mine dearly.
A crispy creme cake? Be still my heart!!
And a star?
You are a super husband and such a romantic..you two were made for each other!
