Herbie Baby,
**Let me speak to you for a moment...
**Your matinee-idol-looks brighten my day with the intensity of a 12-year-old boy-band fanatic meeting Justin Bieber for the first time...
**Your enchanting eyes are like two frozen lakes of dark chocolate; large & inviting…
**Your megawatt smile pierces my soul like a piano forcibly dropped from a third-story balcony…
**Your fleshy lips tantalize my senses like the aroma of a freshly baked batch of cinnamon rolls, fresh from the oven…
**Your powerful intellect instantly draws me in like an enthusiastic bee 🐝 on the hunt for nectar from its favorite flower…
Buzzzzzz! (Alarm sounds)
Man, this alarm is loud!"
"Time to wake up...Back to reality..."
"One day I'll get the nerve to speak to Herbie but until then I guess I'll just dream from afar!..."
