Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Nine

September 9th, I was born,
And 2009 was the year.
That date of mine will now adorn
Wherever birth dates do appear
On my behalf, as I age on
Through all the numbers in some way.
But nine will be the star upon
My each and every birthday.
The numbers have and always will
Be something people need to be.
But some folks like to overkill
A number's role reality.

Kind of like those parents of mine,
Who thought it cute to name me nine.
