Happy Birthday Dr Seuss!

Our pals the Zoolatry girls and Amber daWeenie have given us a challenge for today:

Dr Seuss is one-hundred and eight

and Amber said, "that's really great",

and Zoey replied, "if truth be told,

I purrsonally think that's awfully old!"

Here's Dr Seuss's own Birthday poem!  We're not sure what book it was in, but we found it and thought it was purrfect for today.

Happy Birthday To You!

“If we didn’t have birthdays,

you wouldn’t be you.

If you’d never been born,

well then what would you do?

If you’d never been born,

well then what would you be?

You might be a fish!

Or a toad in a tree!

You might be a doorknob!

Or three baked potatoes!

You might be a bag full of

hard green tomatoes.”

“Or worse than all that…Why,

you might be a WASN’T!

A Wasn’t has no fun at all.

No, he doesn’t.

A Wasn’t just isn’t.

He just isn’t present.

But you…You ARE YOU!

And, now isn’t that pleasant!”

“Today you are you!

That is truer than true!

There is no one alive…

…who is you-er than you!

Shout loud, “I am lucky

to be what I am!

Thank goodness I’m not

just a clam or a ham

Or a dusty old jar of

sour gooseberry jam!

I am what I am! That’s a

great thing to be!

If I say so myself,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!
