H.B.T.Y.

Happy Birthday to Billy,
you live in a silly
house with three little girls
and your wife and two other grown-ups.

Uh..let's try that again.

Happy Birthday to my sweetie
I'm glad it's sunny, not sleety
Such a beautiful spring day
to celebrate your birthday.

Ok, the meter on that one is messed up, but rhyming poems are not my speciality.

The second poem is 4/5 of a lymeric. It's like telling a joke and then stopping just short of the punchline. So to patch things up, how about: "So for you, I turned off the heat-y" or something...
