friendly valentine wishes

being small and terry cloth
is difficult to do
but not as difficult, i bet
as having to be you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

valentine's day comes once a year
with it's cards and lots of sweets.
i want to say i like you a lot
let's go eat rice crispie treats

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

for my favorite opthamologist:

this may come as some surprise,
but thanks for caring for my eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

to my dentist:

for words, i think, i'm at a loss
thanks for teaching me to floss.
i am so flustered i could blush,
thanks too for teaching me to brush.
i hope this doesn't sound to crass,
but, thanks for giving laughing gas.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

for my doggy pal who lives far away:

though you're in berlin
and that's far away,
i send you my love
on valentine's day.
