A Poem For Rania
Lee Ali
When baby Androniki was born
the angels were terribly torn
questioning...
Is she most smart, or most pretty?
A talent impossibly rare
she sang in a rock band (I swear!)
went to college for knowledge
and owned her own house at 30!
A Connecticut Greek with promise
baby Nikki grew up to be Rania
the superstar dancing goddess!
But was it beauty or brains
that powered her train?
For certain, she's one classic beauty
And smart! She's no tutti-fruitti!
But it's the person inside, on which I rely
for she's warm and real and witty.
Whether Nikki or Rania
in sequins or sweats
I'm honestly blessed
to call her my dear, loving friend.

Re: Cute poem about Rania
Mon, October 1, 2007 - 8:38 PMWhat an awesome poem. She is very talented, and grounded, and generous, and smart. She's been one of my most favorite people to study from, and have met.
