The Name

What’s in a name? One that causes the mind To provide a vision of beauty. No it’s not the name of a rose. I refer to what I’ve never seen, To visualize an unknown being A name that paints a lovely picture Unlike the names of Greek gods Like Hercules and Samson Referring to tall, dark and handsome I was told about a girl named Bitsy And my mind saw dainty, delicate and ditsy But when we actually met and to my regret She turned out to be much taller than me.
