Card is best,
use pink-whitish
or your choice.
Do not use
see-through paper.
Make it stiff,
use bright colours
and sharp lines.
Cut holes for
eyes, mouth and ears.
Make it smile -
don't draw tear-drops
or sadness.
Show feelings,
but not your own.
Thread long string
through the holes
for the ears.
Pull it tight
and hide behind it.
