For my tall and gangly friend

Tall and gangly friend,
Tall and gangly friend,
Tall and gAngLY friend,
With beauty untold.

You walk around
You talk around
Painting the world
With words.

You skip about.
You hop about.
Frolic and play
Yes, the Eskimo way.

What to do
O WHAT to do?
With you, with you,
WITH YOU!

Shall I lock you up,
Shall we lock you up?
So no harm will come
No harm will come your way.

I think,
I think,
The ugly duckling is
Indeed a swan.

Tall and gangly friend,
Tall and gangly friend,
Tall and gAngLY friend,
With beauty untold.
