Similar

Happy Daughter’s Day. Obviously love and miss Maggie Lee more than can begin to be expressed. Here’s a song she wrote for me entitled “Similar”

We look alike
We sound alike,
let’s just face it, since I was a tike, we’re similar

Some people say like father like son, but this battle we have won together.

The color of our hair,
The clothes we like 2 wear,
We’re similar.
You don’t look like your Mother,
We, we are like no other,
We’re similar.

You’re a comedianne,
When you drive you hit the median.
You have ADHD,
We can never find your keys,
Together.

We laugh at all the wrong times,
We’re not picky we like all kinds…..of things.

You feel the same bump in our noses,
Wr both have such long toes-es,
We both cry when we watch E.T.,
We also love to freely sing,
We often wear bling-bling
Together.

We’re similar
And sometimes we disagree,
But can’t you please see,
I love you,
We’re similar,
Together,
My Mother.
