Venus and Serena

VENUS AND SERENA

TWO WINNING TENNIS STARS,
THEY ARE, THE WILLIAMS SISTERS.
THESE TWO AFRICAN AMERICAN YOUNG WOMEN,
ARE THE WONDERFUL WILLIAMS CHILDREN.
THEIR PARENTS PREPARED THEM WELL,
TO PLAY THE GAMES,
BUT THEY DID NOT DO SO WELL, WHEN CHOOSING THEIR NAMES.
ONE IS REGAL. SHE’S A QUEEN.
SHE IS SO SOFT AND SO SERENE.
DID THEY CALL HER SERENA?
NO, VENUS IS WHAT THEY NAMED HER.
THE OTHER IS A GEORGEOUS GODDESS.
WHY THEY DIDN’T NAME HER VENUS, I CANNOT GUESS.
THIS SUPERSTAR OF THE ARENA,
THEY NAMED HER SWEET SERENA.
REGARDLESS OF THE NAME REVERSAL,
THEIR CLAIM TO TENNIS FAME, IS UNIVERSAL.
SO, SAY SERENA, OR SAY VENUS,
EITHER WAY, YOU SAY TENNIS GENIUS!                                          Nubian-9.7.2022
