What's In a Name?
Autumn Rose Wood
Yep, that is me
Gotta thank my husband
He is such a sweetie!
I have had three last names
But that one I like best
It invokes magic and beauty
And natural lullabied rest
My mother, Aunts and Grandmother
All strong women
Picked my unchangeable first and middle
They all taught me so many things, my favorites are love of poetry and lemons
The sweet and the sour.
Shakespeare is sometimes wrong
A name
Can offer us a mountain to climb
A reason to strive
And memories to wrap around us like a blanket during the storm.
