The Meaning of Kabaragoya


Kabaragoya

Should you ever go and stay
In the place called The Malay
Archipelago then when you swim
In the water there make sure
You look out for the monitor
Lizard that might swim with you therein

Called the Kabaragoya
A better swimmer than we are
A carnivore more than 6 feet across
Eating rodents, fish and birds,
Crabs, frogs and snakes too I've heard
Showing them when hungry who is boss!

The Meaning of the Name Kathleen



Kathleen

There was girl they called Kathleen
Whose house was spick-and-span and clean
For no dirt or mess she could endure,

But inside she was just as sweet
Her heart was neat from beat to beat
Which fit her well because her name meant pure!

The Meaning of the Name Kelvin



Kelvin

Kelvin was a man who found
Himself alone when on the ground
But felt at home when in the company
Of a ship upon the waves
So every chance he got he gave
Up the land for any chance at sea!

He had no friends to call his own
When not at sea he was alone
But as his name implied he was equipped
To like instead the company
Of his wooden friends at sea
For his name, Kelvin, meant friend of ships.

The Meaning of the Name Kristen



Kristen

Kristen was a lady that
Liked to take in homeless cats
And people too who found themselves in need,
When suffering this lady saw
None of it she could ignore
But helped them out with zeal and with speed!

No thought for herself she had
Helping others made her glad
Despite how their needs may have been priced,
Which was nice for in Latin
Her name exemplified "Christian"
That is a selfless follower of Christ!

What is a Kiwi?


About the Author            Home            What's it all about? 


Kiwi

In the land that is way under
The other land they call Down Under
Is a certain flightless hen-sized bird.
They have long beaks, come out at night,
And have no wings to achieve flight
But from them a high shrill at night is heard.

Their feathers are like fur and brown
And on eight toes they walk the ground
In New Zealand's forests lush and green
Where they eat berries and worms,
Larvae and insects that squirm
Late at night and so are seldom seen.

The Kiwi is the name we give
To this little bird that lives
In the land that bears the Long White Cloud
Where it bears such treasured fame
The People there do share it's name
Proclaiming themselves Kiwi's bold and proud!

What is the Meaning of Kafkaesque?


About the Author            Home            What's it all about? 



I have sitting upon my desk
A book that is quite Kafkaesque
Its content being nightmarishly bizarre
About a bureaucratic land
That is complex to understand
A genre named so after Franz Kafka

An author from last Century
Whose writing did apparently
Reflect said qualities and did impart
Some influence no doubt upon
Philosophers who then belonged
To names like Camus, Marquez and to Sarte.

The Meaning of Kaffiyeh


Kaffiyeh

If while in Arabia
Someone gives you a kaffiyeh
That would be a useful acquisition,

It is a scarf worn on one's head
To spare one from the sun’s hot dread
Using a cord to keep it in position

What is Kabuki?



Kabuki

The country famous for it's sushi
Also gave us the kabuki
An art specific to the Japanese

Costumed in complex detail
The female parts performed by males
Singing, dancing, acting to appease.
