Petrify's a peculiar puppy who plays pranks promptly. He pounces on puppies, perplexing them completely. Petrify's presence provokes pure pandemonium, Positively perturbing the peaceful pet symposium. His mischievous mug makes my mouth melt into a smile, As he petrifies his pals while they prance and pile. Petrify's perseverance in provoking playful mayhem, Brings belly laughs and boundless joy -- oh how I play along with him! So come and join the madness, let's petrify like pros, Twist our tongues with laughter, from our heads to our toes. With Petrify the prankster, we'll party and we'll play, And chase away the boring, with hilarious words we'll say!
Romantic love allows you to focus mating energy. Attachment sustains that relationship as long as necessary to raise your baby.
