first pics in verse

A relative in Russia, Olda Talapova, had sent the following poem, in reaction to the photos from the previous post:

Original English Translation
С восторгом смотрели на личико Моти:
Вы глазок красивых таких не найдете!
И весом приличен, и ростом хорош,
На маму и папу он разом похож!
With fascination we looked at the face of Mateo*
Such pretty eyes you wouldn’t find
The weight is decent, and height is good
He’s at once like mom and dad

Thanks, Olda!

*We’ll have another post about the nicknames for Mateo…
