The naming

She stared at the child
with a question,
day in and day out it was the same
what to name her?
Passed around the baby
from arm to arm
what should we call her,
she was supposed to be a boy.
Each would comment,
has a lot of hair,
good sleeper,
finally declared a nice baby.
After a week she was
christened with a name.

Always a Dilemma

Raskin,

You have written a real bell ringer here and I enjoyed the ride.

I gues you're just not going to tell old Pete your name...harrumph!

Pete

Would you believe

I have a sister named beauty? You could call me Hortence if it makes you happy. What's in a name? raskin

Hortence It Is

Be careful being a smartass with me because I will grab it and run with it, never doubt that for a moment Hortence.

Your buddy,

Alphonso

this

actually is a true story, it took them a week before I was named. I was called baby. raskin

How About That

Interesting point of fact there Hortence, thanks for sharing that with me.

Your pal,

Alphonso
