Bible Story

My granddaughter 
at a young age 
called me Noa, 
a little bit missing 
the mark, but 
she found 
the L in the nick 
of time before 
I had to build
an ark.

       for Elizabeth

Your poem reminded me of a family story. My mother's aunt's first grandaughter tried to say 'grandma', but it came out 'Mung'. I think her family called her Mung until she passed.
