What's in a Name?
I have a name
I smile as I write it down
That means something
People I know hear these sounds
And it conjures up
My face
My laugh
My voice
I am lucky
Some people have only numbers
Branded as cattle
I have
Nineteen letters
3 words
With meanings
Born on Christmas
(I wasn’t)
Of the laurel tree
(I’m not)
Son of Hugh
(Daughter of Colin and Lisa)
But put them together
And they mean
Me
