My Funny Valentine
My funny Valentine,
sweet comic Valentine,
You make me smile with
my heart,
Your looks are
laughable, un-photographical,
Yet you're my favourite
work of art . . .
Is your figure less than
Greek ?
Is your mouth a little
weak?
When you open it to
speak, are you smiling?
But don't change a hair
for me,
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine,
stay!
Each day is Valentine's
Day . . .
Each day is Valentine's
Day . . .
~ featured in the 1955

Brunettes"
