Chappuis was a chap who trimmed his "chap"-puis hair, With flair, he'd wear a hat to declare his snazzy affair. With each snip, he'd flip, and the follicles would fly, As Chappuis grinned and twirled, feeling oh-so spry. But one day, a mishap caused his clippers to go awry, His hair was a tangle, his hat flew to the sky. Chappuis panicked and yelped, "What have I done?" As his hair stood on end, like a circus clown's fun. With determination, he gathered his wits, Chappuis grabbed the scissors, and with animated fits, He snip-snap-slashed and giggled with glee, As his tresses flew and danced, wild and free. He twirled and spinned, with each swipe and flick, Chappuis created a whirlwind of hair, full of wit. In the end, he stood proud, with a masterpiece untamed, A hairdo so outrageous, it became his newfound fame. So let it be known, from this day forward, far and near, Chappuis, the chap with the hair, so bold and clear. A tongue twister to impress, with laughter and cheer, Chappuis, chappuis, we'll say it loud and clear!
Romantic love allows you to focus mating energy. Attachment sustains that relationship as long as necessary to raise your baby.
