What a Huge Surprise

It was coming up on your thirtieth birthday,
what should I do.
You said no party,
just me and you.
You were turning thirty,
so that would never do.
I set the date~booked the restaurant,
called many friends.
We were going out for lovely dinner,
until we walked into the room.
All stood up,
then yelled surprise happy birthday to you.
Ten years later,
forty came around.
No party he did bellow,
this would not stand.
I got away with thirty,
could I do it again.
I knew the plan,
I just had to activate it.
All was set in motion guess what,
it worked again.
It was like in slow motion,
all stood up~yelled surprise happy birthday to you again.
I pulled it off again for fifty,
what a huge surprise to everyone but you.
