bday pains!

Twas' the night of my birthday
the town was asleep,
not a soul stirred in slumber
except for poor ole' me..

No it wasn't birthday excitement.
nor was it any spooky encounter
but a nagging pain starting from,
somewhere around my denture.

And then around around 4 a.m.
an explosion in my ear
accompanied with writhing pain,
what a way to start my year!

I screamed, n cried,
n yelled some more
but that didn't help the pain,
oh no sir no!

So off to the hospital
in my pajamas i left
along with a worried dad
and a terrified mother wept!

I bawled at the doctor,
the nurses and the peon,
woke everyone up,
n conveniently swooned.

The next thing i know
the pain is dull,
injections and medicines
made the torture totally null!

The bday gal slept
relieved from the pain,
knowing that her hearing,
will never be the same again!

"happy bday lakshmi!!"
said friends n loved ones
she smiled serenely,
with a blocked ear drum!!
