To Babette
April 30 1988
Dear Friend, Dear Boon Companion
Dear Love beyond compare
Whom I pursue from dusk 'till dew
From damp to desert air,
From dusty books to cozy nooks
From runny nose to kleenex --
The only word I've ever heard
That really rhymes with Phoenix --
I hope your Birthday's happy
And everything is nice
But, if it's dumb there's more to come
You know we do it twice
Love
Frank
