She was one of a Kind, Like a diamond so rare, Just a few weeks ago, Added purple streaks to her hair. You could hear her for miles, When she laughed at a joke. And her cold drink of choice Was always real Coke. She loved everything Purple, Even down to floor tile, Adored Levian & Diamonds, She had an excellent style. She loved Suzy & Mike, And Felt that each was her child, They thought her the warden, And not very mild. Cause she was the oldest, And the pragmatist too. And if you didn’t believe her, She’d quickly tell you! She was the center of Family, Betty Boop was her name. No one else could be like her, She invented the game.
