Pukka

I needed to know.

So, I asked a trusted 

British colleague + friend

if he was familiar with

 what I was inquiring about.

He said he was somewhat 

familiar with it

and it looked “pukka”.

 

“What’s ‘pukka’?”, I asked.

He told me it meant, 

‘legitimate or genuine’.

Needless to say, 

I was comforted.

Reaching-out for opinions

and/or counsel is important

and it’s smart.

And sometimes 

you learn something new.

Thanks to my trusted source,

 pukka is my new word now.

Yep, I’m all about pukka.

Because I like to know if some one

 or some thing is genuine.

In other words:

So, who comes to mind 

when you think of 'pukka'?

I value you + your views,
