Surprise! - by Kim

Pressed behind the couch, I’ve grown hungry and grouchy
A burst of static breaks the silence; the two-way radio informs us:
Remain hiding a bit longer, she is safe on her way.
Time to pop up like puppets as someone flicks on the lights.
Yelling, “Surprise!” I leap up, but my mind is on the cake …

Aww, I should've read before I wrote! I should have known someone else would use this though.

besides, you guys cover both angles on the surprise party - both the victim and the perpetrator :-)
