Ode To *******

Your love is warm
But you act so cool
You’re sometimes a jester
But never a fool

Your hugs are so tight
And your words so sweet
You’re incredibly handsom
From your head to your feet

Your eyes are so bright
And so is your smile
You have an amazing personality
And an impeccable style

You are just so fun to be with
Oh I love you so
But to be truthful
You sound like a geek
When you say “Dude! Yo!!!”
