“Birthdays oh! Birthdays,

Why do they come?

Apart from eating cakes, 

What’s the fun? 

I grow older by a year, 

Oh! I don’t want that my dear!”

Cried little Tom to his mother. 

Mother dear laughed and said, 

“Oh! I love birthdays, my son. 

I grow older, but not every year, 

Once in four years instead. 

I celebrate in a grand manner, 

With party pops and banners. 

I enjoy my birthday dear son, 

As it falls in the Leap Year!!”
