you're a star
I should think so
everyone would agree
for you have a daughter
a portrait of a picture perfect
a carbon copy of you

me! yeah, imagine that!

I hope you know
I love you very much
you can tell, right?
for I carefully hand-made
the card especially for you
I named it

Picasso Emulation

I hope you don't mind
my using cut-out blue gum
for your eyes
(I like gum, you know)

I would have made you
a breakfast too
but daddy hogged the kitchen
way too long
his strawberry crepes
were great though
but I think
you would have enjoyed
my French banana pancakes
'cause the first time I made them
you said they were the best
