Let's make this birthday one to remember.

90 years old (Born on November 15, 1934)

Happy Birthday, Ted! May your day be filled with more poetic brilliance than "The Sonnets" and fewer hangovers than those aboard "The Drunken Boat." Frank O'Hara knew talent when he saw it—clearly you were the poet who could turn everyday chaos into timeless verse.

From capturing life's quirks in "Living With Chris," to exploring wanderlust beautifully in “A Feeling for Leaving,” you've given us countless reasons to celebrate. Here's hoping this birthday brings inspiration as boundless as your creativity—and perhaps a cake big enough that even poets won't complain about sharing. Cheers, Ted; keep making poetry unforgettable!
