since she has moved to America, it became Lani
she apologized Americans want all things to sound short
and faster than the tornado to reach
what is going in each American mouth I have seen on Dutch TV spot
is a very large plastic box filled with ice cream
that only is ONE person consuming it
in front of the TV with his legs above the sitting-room table.
This is the first time I tell ye and write about this sweet habit
these are the things that impressed me most
as I was sitting there at the Lobster restaurant
an ober was asking me which dessert I wished
while showing the brownies to me
they have such biggest measure
and I have tasted so many lobsters
looked like my stomach is gonna in rapture
if I accept this great adventure
sure my belly would be in suffering torture
and this!
on the stairs of Disney Land, wow!
a most loveliest big playground for all ages
near LA in Annaheim
there were two gentlemen in front of me
I was so shocked: they needed widest
grandest and broadest spot
because the stairs are just enough
for one of them
IF I may tell ye
they are just obese individuals
muscled but above all, why I show you these?
they are too fat, they are obese
as the stairs were going down
on Anaheim’s loveliest playground
Oh, dear Lani, what would I say in fact?
of course, I wanted to congratulate you, perfect!
A Very Happy BirthDay to you, am I correct?
the happiest Day tomorrow with Avi all the way
May love and happiness be on your way to stay
I have here homemade cake ‘Appeltaart’ with me
that is the original Dutch Apple-cake, no fake!
these words are created spontaneously
I do hope tomorrow we will meet in reality, sincerely
please, don´t forget to fetch me off at the airport
otherwise, I would not dare to come from aboard
this is possible due to KLM support
this name stands for so much comfort
I do hope these felicitations are enough short
please, don´t forget to fetch me off at the airport!
