He Named Me Nonnie

This a peom about the special child in my life that gave me a life-long nickname.

Sweet precious nephew
Blonde hair and blue eyed
So full of laughter and light at my side
We had special days when you were just one and two
The memories I’ll treasure, the old and the new
I still hear the laughter as you used to say
Nonna, Nonna, Nonnie that is your name
I never guessed my name would stay the same
As years have passed in talent you’ve grown
You have the gift of words with a message for all
It’s so special to my heart when I hear your call
My nieces and nephews all just the same
Nonnie has grown to be my special and most favorite name
