The Reason Behind Reason

a minute poem My sweetheart had it in his head when first we wed, from loving groom my nom de plume. The name he calls me, Reason A., like cabernet rolls off the tongue like music sung. No rhyme or reason could I find to reassign his nickname sworn - my pen name born. November 26, 2021 explanation: Reason A. Goodwin, an editor of World Book Encyclopedia Dictionary, was a word judge on the original Password Game Show. The producers got upset with him the first time he was called upon to challenge a word, he looked it up in his dictionary. They said, "We could have hired any girl to look up a word." My husband loved the show and started calling me "Dr. Reason A. Poteet" anytime we argued about things. His favorite expression has always been, "You just never know." to which I always reply, "But you can find out."
