Say My Name
My name speaks for itself
It needs no explanation
Variations ranging from Christine
To Christina and Kristen
To Kirsty, Christy and Kristian
Onward Christian Soldiers
is probably our marching music
But we prefer to be low key
Choosing a more passive way
Our directions not rubric
You can guess the origin
But it’s more interesting to learn
We have dissatisfaction
For being governed by tradition
For travel and adventure we yearn
We like harmony and balance
Respond positively to beautiful things
We are muses and someone
who can change your life
With Christine you can do anything

Thank you Sadje! I appreciate your kind words 🙂
I believe it! All the Christine’s I’ve known, I’ve admired for their independent mindedness and self-assurance.
Well thank you kindly! I just didn’t want to go the religious route.
