If I were any prettier— Well, I just couldn’t stand it. Yet, you won’t pay me any mind. Look at me. I demand it! Night after night, you sit outside romancing your fair lover. While you remain oblivious bright gems above you hover. Oh, now you’re waltzing on the lawn. Your next move is quite thrilling. While gazing up, you smile at ME! It seems I’ve earned top billing just for this moment. From afar, I’m proud to be your beaming star.

Now that I read this again, I see that it is not merely 'geniosity,' but that it's also right up Nina's alley! Congrats on your fine placement in this highly competitive contest, Janice! Smiles, Gershon
