That was great Mindfield! I showed my husband and explained that you always do birthday cakes when it’s someone’s birthday too.
He asked me how you do it. I told him, I don’t know, but it’s always cool to look at.
Very nice!
awestruck
Awesome poem, Mindfield.
Bravo, and well done, sir! I shall read this to my wife and our cats later today, with full credit to you, of course. (“See, honey, posts and posters like this are why I like the SDMB so much.”)
BTW, glad you gave it a bump today–I missed it the first time around.
Huzzah for Mindfield - very well done! Warmest wishes of the season to all of my fellow Dopers.
Muchas gracias for the compliments. 
Taters - The tree ain’t hard to do, just tedious. One of these days I’m going to write a program to make it easier, then everyone around here can be an arteest.
Spoons - I asked my cats to proof it before I posted. Three of them fell asleep. The other one told me to go change the litterbox, then peed on the printout while I was occupied. Everyone’s a critic.
Sunspace - Is that Polish? So that’s where they put all the vowels.
