Navahnoonoo Bougainvillea

Navahnoonoo bougainvillea

villy-nilly, so  silly

Poppy & fuschia

orange & moosha-                                    

I've come here to tell ya'                                    
of Navahnoonoo bougainvillea
with her petals like leaves                    
that cling to the eaves

peeping this way & that
on her round little mat                   
at parents and others
with kisses that smother

They tickle and pinch you,
the cute little NooNoo!               
With amazingish brio
you try to break free. . . oh!  

'Can't knit or crochet
but I know how to say,                                           
and I know how to hug 
your adorable mug!                                                                        

Navahnoonoo Bouganvillea             
Oh what a silly,
a rhymer, a climber, a gootchy, a poochy,
a sure fire dancer, a sweet moving mantra

These stanzas keep humming,
they flibble & pop,
so I'll just do one more                                               
before you say "Stop!"                                                                  

I know this sounds terse:                                                     
Yet it renders some verse:

        The darling of smoochie,
                           our own Navahnucci!
