"Happy 38, Emily Kendal Frey!" [by Anthony Madrid via Facebook]

EMILY KENDAL FREY (1/20)

A piece of chocolate cake.
A wedge of lemon pie.
This birthday poem is written to
Emily Kendal Frey.

I dunno what I can do.
I never refuse to comply.
This birthday poem is written to
Emily Kendal Frey.

Potter and Otter and you.
And Dickens and Pickens and I.
This birthday poem is written to
Emily Kendal Frey.

I bet I know somebody who
Adores you and now you know why
This birthday poem is written to
Emily Kendal Frey.

☎

Miss Emily Kendal Frey!
Impossible! don’t even try!
These lions and tigers, oh my!
Are for Emily Kendal Frey!

Miss Emily Kendal Frey!

Like Wendell and Mendel and I.

Radio

I left it
on when I
left the house
for the pleasure
of coming back
ten hours later
to the greatness
of Teddy Wilson
"After You've Gone"
on the piano
in the corner
of the bedroom
as I enter
in the dark


from New and Selected Poems by David Lehman
