This chapter for Frank's birthday is a bit different. They're haikus! And poems!
The sky is blue,
I can count to two,
Hazel likes you,
You're my pal.
-PERCY
So Leo didn't write this. Frank was surprised. Awkwardly, he hugged Percy.
Frank, Frank
You're a friend of mine.
Frank, Frank,
You're as precious as a gem,
Frank, Frank,
Happy Birthday tonight.
-PIPER
Frank 'Phew'-Ed. Piper wrote a song instead of a poem. Frank was just glad it wasn't um, well, 'Percy-ish'. That's a term now for terrible poems.
You're a bear
A dog
A horse
You're my friend.
-JASON
Frank gulped. Yeah, they replaced 'Apollo-ish' with 'Percy-ish' as the term for terrible rhymes, but now Frank replaced it yet again with 'Jason-ish'.
You don't like me much,
I don't like you much,
Maybe we'll grow closer in the future,
But you're still my friend.
SO HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MAN!
-LEO
Frank smiled. He actually liked this one. He grinned at Leo "I think we're already growing closer." Percy and Jason stared AT Leo jealously. As Frank saw Leo coming in for a hug, he added- "I'm still not hugging you, Fireboy." Leo grinned. "smart choice." He said, summoning a fireball into his hands.
I wish you the brightest future,
And all that it can bring,
May every moment be full of fun,
And joyful, special things!
Happy birthday.
-ANNABETH.
Frank smiled again. This wasn't so terrible either. He hugged her.
With you, I've found the perfect partner.
The sweetest love anyone has known.
I'm so glad I was back from the dead.
Now, I can love you.
Happy birthday, Frank.
This poem was definitely Franks favorite. Let's follow Annabeth's advice, and leave the lovebirds alone.
