Duly Noted

Oh magnificent pearl of poignant poetry
this five year occasion has sired such light,
a drift through the chasm of surreal thought
to the abyss of reverie’s night and flares.

Now to commemorate this occasion
we have conjured the finest in bureaucratic assemblies
so you might be endowed with the gold
of legislative’s pens in their profound purpose.

For you shall be graced
the wondrous feel of being aptly admired
with throngs of those who suitably discern
the exquisite brilliance of your talent.

These are the sentinels of democracy
who will give you the attention ,
which mirrors the honor they give so many
that you could feel anointed by fame’s diadem
in a way that lets it radiance shimmer so stunningly
upon all you chose to do with your life.

So here is one of those devoted civil servants
spending time prepared your award of acclaim
you can stand with pride flowing in your chest
because once this effort is done
then you shall feel as adorned of attention
as countless others that have been served,
naturally you name was added to their special list,
the one marked audit by the IRS!
