Caren Krutsinger Poet Light Verse

Juniper Rose 1 Juniper Rose 2 Juniper Rose 3

Upon birth, Juniper loved her name; no one else had it.
But then others heard it.
Now there are sixteen Junipers in the same class - her class.
The teacher wants to number them.
Juniper one, Juniper two, Juniper three.
The parents sign a petition they do not want their children numbered.
They should have thought of that before they stole Juniper’s middle name too.

Hey, we named ours Emily..... Caren Krutsinger October 22, 2021 at 11:18 AM I know a couple who had chosen the name David William. They told his brother and sister-in-law, and they named their baby David William a month later.
