Ode to Derralyn Claire Martin



There once was a girl called Derralyn
Who was as pretty as a fairytale heroine
Her eyes were like stars
And her ancestors from Mars1
But her heart was as big as a watermelon2


1. Mars because Matin is just the 'earthified' version of Martian

2. This is a VERY big compliment and has no bearing on the fruitiness of her mind (although we're not exactly denying that!) Watermelons are one of my top 2 fruits and watermelons are very beeeeeeeeg (this is what i am referring to with her heart :D)

Dez was my absolute psycho hero and partner in crime on Thurs night/Fri morning :D

Lots has happened since then, but I am too tired to function properly so i shall write a post about it all later (like tomorrow or something).

Just to mention that the revelation of the day is that according to aptitude tests my triplet (Becs and Dez) are professionaly suited to being either a businesswoman/wife (Becs) or... A MANIKIN DRESSER (Dez)!!! I guess even that could be adapted to old Martin Luther's saying, "A milkmaid [manikin dresser] can milk a cow [dress a manikin] to the glory of God" :D hehe.

p.s. some new quotations up... check them out here

OK. Maybe it's two things... I think both of them are great too... OK, I'm probably going to be shouted at for saying great and now someone is going to post the word 'cute' on my blog to get me back. But great in the reals sense, not the 'I can't think of any other word' kind of way. Just so you know, you great too.

My dearest Berry, that was an entirely apt ode to the loveliness that is Dez. Thank you for capturing that. And I'm particularly impressed by your poetic intepretation of the bible ;) Hey if I were those Isrealites, I would've crossed the to the promised land for milkybar and honeycomb anyday!
