A new birthday

A new birthday 
Another year gone
No immediate celebrations
It will have to wait
A sad fact to face 
No sweet treat
For I'm sick
No lighted candles 
No pressies 
I spent the day at the hospital 
Shopping was out of the way
I've got a list but driving there
Was too much for me
A sad birthday all in all
I had planned so much
But it won't happen
That is the truth of it
May be next week
Whenever I recover
My body has betrayed me!
