Paper Anniversary by Kitty Nessa part of me is a part of you
a chart of three, a little clue
a home, a place, a face of fun
a robe, a lamb, a tiny thumb
we know the words that mean the most
a balm, a palm, some melon-toast
we sing them loud, we sing our tunes
we sing them all around the rooms
only one year in one-hundred-and-three
means so much to you and me
my pear, a pair we'll always be
my cute, a boot, a fish, a fair
i love you most of all these things:
a kite, the night, some quiet mews
we found our one, and then made two
