My Favourite Body Part
I looked into a mirror, took each one apart
Someone had asked me, What's your favourite body part?
Why not your eyes?
Ah, those ones betray me so easily when I cry
Your ears?
No, they too quickly give into their fears
Thought you'd say your lips
They are pretty, yes. But make many regrettable slips
Your nose?
Oh, it is too large and tends to spoil many a pose
And your teeth?
The top row is straight, but not those beneath
But your hands?
Ha, they get busy and selfish with their finds
And your feet?
Hmm... That's an idea but they're not too neat
What about your legs?
They'd sure do well if we compare them to pegs
Surely, your lungs?
They'd do anything for air, to whom do they really belong?
I know, I know! Your brain!
It'd be the best, if I could remember everyone's nameβΊ
Someone asked, "what's your favourite body part?"
One that has stayed loyal to me from the very start
If I must choose a part, that would be my heart β₯
