There's Susan and Deirdre and Susan M2 Vivian, Vyvyan, Caroline too Beryl and Diane No I'm not lyin' But Flora, where are you? No Daisy no Rosy no Hyacinth B No Petal, Petunia that I can see Where are those sweet scented Though sometimes demented Girls named after flower or tree? And while we are at it where's Prudence today? Gone with Patience a long way away Charity Hope and Faith are not here Those peculiar names of yesteryear. Jim
