Katie, A Singular Bug

We all need a buzzing in our ears to keep us pointing in the right directions.

Katie, A Singular Bug

 

There’s many forms of Katie

   They’re chosen from the start

They’re all used for the self-less

   And for the pure of heart.

 

Katorina for the Finnish,

   Katarina for the Greek,

The Irish love their Catlin,

   Katy’s all the Spanish speak

 

Now if you were a Russian,

   Katya would be your sweet child

Even Poles would have to all agree,

   Kassias bring us peace and smile.

 

Yet there’s one thing we are missing,

   As we write about her fame.

There is more to Katie we can’t see,

   As beloved’s in her name.

 

But let us ever not forget,

   That God has made her so.

Just like an insect, just a bug

   A Katy-Did we know.

 

Her chances for success and fame

   There’s one thing she can do

She chirps out loudly in the night

   Calling mates both one and two.

 

Together thru the long night hours

   They play their Godly rhyme,

And sing of katies all world thru

   They’re beloved all the time.

Larry, this is just so charming! What a fortunate granddaughter, to have her own poem composed for her! Now I have to rush off to Google to find out what the derivation of that name is, so I can better undrstand this lovely offering. Well done, my friend!
