To My Dearest Genius Koko, very Happy Birthday! Poem by Sylvia Frances Chan

As our beloved Mum oft told us
on genius Koko's Birth shone the moon at its fullest
eversince for us all a non-ending plus

for each person, animal or plant
your knowledge and understanding are constantly excellent
it be smallest or greatest, poorest or richest

today we wish to congratulate you
on your BirthDay as the happiest you
God and Science are always in your company

your heart, too tender too soft to make one enemy
we are still surprised that you know literary all
to God goes our greatest gratitude
that you are most happy in your solitude!

your beloved sister
