A furry teen
Shakes off seventy percent
Of water after
From who tries to bathe.
And correctly
Knowing... a teen
Alone only clean
Areas light as a feather,
Know what I mean,
Rhetorically.
Cooks until on their own
A Cook!
At a place.
A magnificent look
And no fleeing smells.
Baby's all grown up.
Notices the visiting,
Booked! Another
And another sees.
An amused pour.
A pleasing talk...
