This morning my three year old sunshine
called on FaceTime from a continent away.
Appuch, have this coffee, she said proffering the cup
Appuch, her moniker for me, her homage to an alien lingo.
Appuch is so far away, her dad gently tried not to spoil her party,
But she is made of sterner stuff. It's 'pretend coffee', she declared.
Sure, said I, love to have coffee and some pretend cake too!!.
Yeaaaah, She crooned, here take this big piece of cake, Appuch.
......
The girl said on the silver screen
A tear in each blue
Please don’t ever leave my love
For if you did, I’d die
I yawned and switched the TV off
I’d seen that film before
And in the end it all came right
Just like a million more
