A MASTERSTROKE
They say you are cuter
but through you I see myself
an artist with a masterstroke
the Wilson Ngoni of reproduction
Your googly eyes a mirror
through which I see my past
reflections of dreams I never achieved
your rabbit ears so alert
to hear all the good wishes
I pronounce silently about your future
Your skin perfectly smooth
smooth enough it heals
painful wounds from my past
They say you are cuter
but through you I see myself...
