Occasions need to be discriminated
as public and private and intermediate
that which goes with a grandeur
on events as small as birthdays
take us to an out of proportion element
whereas an incident of honour by an award
granted for stupendous services
and for contributions to art and science
go unrecognised and unknown at larger levels.
The recipients of these honours meritorious
would shun such publicity goes without saying
but the desire to celebrate a birthday
an anniversary, sweet sixteen
all take us to a typical distraction
Well, that might be an individual’s wish
but could be done with less expense
while
moderation could be settled in for.
