Oh Shan
Take my hand
And say
It’s ok
The world
Is burning
But I’m
Still yearning
It’s scarier
Than Freddie Kreuger
But I feel safe
When I’m with my cougar
Shan, you are
My favorite cougar
In our morning coffee
We don’t use sugar
It’s hard to rhyme
A word like cougar
But still I try
In this ode to ya
Hallelujah
For this cougar
And happy birthday
Wishes to ya
Oakland, California
