If a child were to come within this place
And bless me with its special grace
I'd pick a name to make it grin
Without as well as deep within.
Now, knowing names as I well do...
My own - Manesa (What can you do?) ...
They'd face some trials with mispronunciation
And garner smiles of simple fascination....
A boy would be named Kyah Ruse,
One who no one could refuse;
With his father's sparkling blue pool eyes
And dimples with each new surprise.
A girl, Sydney Ariella's her name
One which might just bring her fame
Whether it be by book or stage
That people would call with all the rage....
Now, these would be my choices, true
Without the daddy's input, too
For you have seen what name he likes
Despite my protests, day or night
Winter...for a child born in the dead of summer....
Go figure.

I know what you mean and I think the names you chose were simply beautiful and adorable. Winter makes you think about the sad part of the year when there isn't a lot of sunlight and happiness.
You two should talk more
