Whats In a Name

When young I wanted to seriously change my name, to something pretty like Rose but not everyday Mary Jane, being named after a flower would've be so sweet, feeling like a scented princess from my head down to my feet, Then I noticed in the late 1960's some female celebrities, who were up and coming with the same first name as me, one a svelte pop singer the other a fashion model, thats when to my name I started to feel a little more partial, My Mom buying me a barrette that I wore proudly in my hair, with my name upon it which I wore with a lot of care, liking my name more but wishing I could've dropped the L, because of hearing certain songs on the radio that made my heart melt, But since I'm almost 60 I guess I'm stuck with it, its a name I guess I grew into and which somehow fits, guessing its better than what would've been my parents first choice, impulsively changing it on my birth certificate and to which I can rejoice! 1-7-17
