Favourite Catherines

Certainly not Catherine the Great of Russia, she’s 
too fierce although she’d surely have put Putin in his place. 
While Catherine Deneuve fired my adolescent Id, she
and Catherine Zeta-Jones are way out of my league.
As a Canadian, I love Schitt’s Creek, but it isn’t Catherine O’Hara,
nor Catherine Bush, better known as Kate, whose songs we adore. 
I know you’d choose Katherine Hepburn, not for her Oscars.
but because she was a” K” Katherine just like you, although 
it’s your middle name and only I get to call you that.
