Haley’s face is so nicely shaped
Her eyes are so big and round,

Her nose is kind of big
And her arms look like twigs,

But she’s a great friend to have around.

All kidding aside she hates goodbyes,
She’s an immigrant legally bound

She has pretty curly hair,
But will only put it down when she’s sleeping safe and sound

The greatest day of her life was when god brought light
And her little sister was born

Haley has all her teeth,
Is very neat, and her favorite food is corn

When she was 15 her frog named George Bentley died
And she will for always and ever morn
