A new year’s love letter

Start the new year off with a sweet note, and who knows, maybe that last tranche of funding will come through in time.

1

You ask how much I love you?
I’m telling the whole nation!
No one loves you more than I do!
(We just got your donation.)

2

There are so many who wanted you
But all of them you spurned.
That’s why we cherish you:
Our beloved summer intern.

3

You won my heart, you won my soul,
You’re my perfect one true romance.
You had me from the time you helped
Get our FCRA clearance!

4

They’ll call you dumb, mock your paycheque,
They’ll say you’re delulu.
But they, my love, are all the prob,
And you’re the solulu.

5

I would sit through our audits,
Take meetings with NRIs,
Do annual reviews with the board,
Just to win one smile from your eyes.
