What's Your Name Magazine

By

   



What's your name?

Is it Thomas, Betty, Monique, Jennifer or Christina?

Or is it something more unique,

Like Winifred, Bonita, Ruse,Takeem, Elwae or Reena?



What's your name?

Please tell me.

If you don't,

It's all the same,

It's what is inside that counts.

I love this! it's a perfect example of what's in the inside mattering more than what's on the outside like a persons name!!! :)

btw if you get the chance could you take a look at my photos such as beauty in nature and freedom (and comment and rate them????)  it would be greatly appreciated!! THANKS!

hello, um your poem is pretty great but is a bit short. maybe a little depth or play of words would make it even better.
all in all, this was pretty awesome

I like it. It sends a kind of unique vibe especially at the end when it says its what's in the inside that counts. I've never heard that term refer to names before.

It's a little short. Maybe if you made it a little longer it could be even better.
