Greeting Card

H is how she hatched me from her brain pod, 

J is for the jar she grew me in. 

Y is for the yellow of her eye-stalks, 

G is for the green glow of her skin. 

R is for the races that she’s conquered, 

X is how her X-rays warm my hearts. 

N means that she never needs new slime sacs, 

P is how she prunes my extra parts. 

O is how she orbits lesser homeworlds, 

L is for her light-bombs which destroy. 

Put them all together, they spell HJYGRXNPOL, 

I’m proud to be her special little boy!
