24 Poems ~ 24 Hours
Born some fourty plus years ago to a wonderful community of family friends and neighbors in West Philadelphia.i have over twenty years of experience working in the health care industry.Married my friend had two amazing children I call my Sun and Moon , even too great dogs. I would definitely describe myself as a classic city girl with the soul of a Georgia peach..
On one hand nine years feels like yesterday on the other it seems as if a lifetime has passed
Up with hope!! Bring on the change. I had no idea changing
involved so much pain. I felt personally responsible for the demise of my world I felt lost I felt like a father less girl my insides drowning in emptiness I could never fathom. When the day began with more promise than ever imagined. Can you see my disdain for the world, because Im no longer his little girl…just his legacy
“Yellow flowers pink balloons,mommy loves you.I’ll be home soon” a song I made for my baby girl almost seventeen years ago. “Over the rainbow under the sea,I love you and you love me,tell everyone that you know mommy loves you so” was my ode to my son two years after his sister
My very own sun and moon. Now my babies are teenagers. My first job is almost done. The job of preparing them for what’s yet to come. So now instead of lullabies we sing “my opportunities are limitless,when my determination is relentless”
Somewhere deep down in the essence of my being a secret fire dwells within
Flames ablaze with memories of greatness the stories of my kin
I never walk alone. Even as a child,I could feel it in my bones. Great grands, aunt’s uncle’s, cousins people I never knew and. Now since my parents are gone I feel them too
Fresh like the morning dew
Clear and concise uncommonly nice. Motivation in over drive regrets covered in broken promises have no power today.
Today my opportunity to fly is bigger than my fear
No longer will my voice fall on deaf ears
Today the world will know
I was here
