My funny valentine
Sweet comic valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable
Un-photographable
Yet you’re my favorite work of art.
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak,
Are you smart?
But don’t change a hair for me,
Not if you care for me,
Stay little Valentine stay:
Each day is Valentine’s Day
— Lorenz Hart (1895-1943)
For “My Funny Valentine” by Richard Rodgers
