Fourth Volley: Shine

Shine: is most commonly known as a brightness from a source of light; radiance or luster. It can be used to refer to items that are excellent in quality or appearance. Shine is also slang for a shoeshine, fair weather, a prank, whiskey or moonshine.

Third Volley: Born

Born: Traditionally used to describe something as being brought into life by birth or brought into existence; created: A new nation was born with the revolution.

Born can also be used to describe something as native to a particular country, region, or place. Often used in combination: Irish-born; Southern born and bred; Boston-born.

However, many people do not know that it is an alternative spelling of the Old English word “burn” meaning a stream or brook.

Second Volley: Cute

Cute: first appeared in the dictionary in 1731. Originally, it was used as a slang term for acute. Meaning keenly perceptive or discerning, shrewd. Slowly, people began to substitute it for the word acuteness or “pretty, fetching.” By 1838, the word cute was being used to describe “gals.”

Well, this is as cute as we could get:
