Occurred, absurdly absurd, A rubber chicken just flew by my herd. Twirled and whirled, feathers all blurred, Surprised all the cows, they mooed and stirred. Occurred, absurdly absurd, A monkey rode in on a skateboard. Flipped and tripped, bananas were slurred, Laughing with joy, we cheered, undisturbed. Occurred, absurdly absurd, A penguin danced, so slick and superb. Twisted and twisted, flipper unfurled, We clapped and laughed, our eyes all swirled. Occurred, absurdly absurd, A llama ice-skated, oh how absurd! Glide and slide, all elegance and glee, We roared with laughter, hearts light and free. Occurred, absurdly absurd, A giraffe played basketball, never heard! Dunked and jumped, long neck unfurled, Pure hilarity, the laughter occurred. Occurred, absurdly absurd, A cat learned to fly, beyond the word! Soared and meowed, whiskers all blurr'd, We couldn't stop laughing, pure joy occurred!
Romantic love allows you to focus mating energy. Attachment sustains that relationship as long as necessary to raise your baby.
