You've cornered the market on "cute"in this poem. First you use a great device in a five year old's voice. He can say so many cute things eg "a big boy you will now be
even a little taller you will see", that a narrator can't do so well. Then you throw in all of the fun stuff like icecream, and cap it off with a cute puppy. I'm crying at this point. So, your poem is just that; a good kid's one because it meets them where they like it. Great write for the prompt.

A tender, children's poem that epitomizes parental love and a child's joy for life. Birthdays are special simply for the memories years later. Loved the piece.

A wonderful tale of a child's impending birthday and the subsequent arrival of a very special present. The dialogue adds to the poem and its simplicity makes this an easy to read poem for a child to read.

This poem has a really nice feel to it. Made me feel like a kid again when I got my first puppy. You captured that feeling well. Nice rhyming as well.
