Never Thought I'd Sea
a rose by any other name

I never thought Iβd see or hear
Being called a name unknown
It sounds like She-In, dear
I still get Sheepdog with a bone
π¦΄π¦΄π¦΄π¦΄π¦΄π¦΄π¦΄
I get S---head, Sheeny and Sheen
And, any relation to the Bishop?
Sherman, even an OβSheehan
Still get Potato, Irish and Mick
π€π€π€π€π€π€π€
In Gaelic, it is OβSiodhachain
Even I canβt pronounce it
So, Iβve learned to take them all
But my name is not an exhibit
πππππππ
I have always loved the sea
Must be in my Irish genes
Just to be near her makes me smile
Mikeydred says Iβm a thalassophile β¦

About the Creator
David X. Sheehan
I write my memories, family, school, jobs, fatherhood, friendship, serious and silly. I read Vocal authors and am humbled by most. I'm 76, in Thomaston, Maine. I seek to spread my brand of sincere love for all who will receive.
