2...g5 is a better defense.

But then we can't checkmate

i have not memorized the day 1 solution mate by heart but it is very improbable that your opponent plays perfect defense, so normally i get easier mates here, but i think it is mate in 11, so check stockfish, i remember it is queen mate with a big king hunt, but maybe @mathsoccerchess considered a variation, or maybe @mathsoccerchess did not have perfect black defense

Qf5+ Kh6

h4 Qe7

d3+ g5

Bd2 d5

hxg5+ Kg7

Bc3+ Nf6

gxf6+ Kf7

Qh5+ Kg8

Qxd5+ Be6

Qxe6+ Qf7 (or Qxe6 would be not best defense since getting mated with bishop is more embarassing getting mated with queen)

Qxf7#
