To my daughter-in-law Véronique
As roses are green and as…
Horses are… trusty…, stretchy… and bouncy…
And as… as…
Stars are flowery, and as…
The flowers on the fields are… as…
And as a famous wannabe
Said…
Magnanimous…
Willowy manatee…
Chickadee…
Kookaburra…
Wallaby…
And as…, as…, as…
As your namesake wiped the face of Jesus Christ
So wipe my face
And then my ass.
