There Is No Pain

There is no pain
That was not measured
Before coming to you,
Selected like a gift
For your birthday.
How ill-mannered to
Attempt to refuse it.
Send a thank you note instead
Attach it to a leaf
Or the first star your eye lands on
Or give it to me
And I will deliver it personally
To the beloved Sender
And tell that Friend
What a perfect fit it is
How happy you are to receive it
And how you will cherish it always.
