Long blonde hair
wide blue eyes
really very tall
no big surprise

Athletic, of course
And skinny, for sure
Playing basketball
theres gotta be a cure

Always smiles
never cries
bing happy
not concerned about size

Not worrying
very calm
looks at things brightly
likes trees of palm

I walk up to my mirror
who do I see?
The picture perfect girl
Oh wait...Thats Me.
