Momma

Well here in the Bahamas I've had time to nurse three passions: thinking, reading, and writing. Last night I wrote this; it is deeply personal but yet therapeutic




These days have been long and hard

Many have been spent crying out for you

I look everywhere in search of you

Your words, your smile, your hair

The other day I met a lady with hair like you

Mmhhhmm her face was roun n brown even her eyes too

She was kind, she offered words of wisdom, hope and inspiration like you use too

I saw God in her like I use to see in you

Her presence filled me with happiness and tears because I thought of you

I’d give anything right now just see, hear, and feel you

I don’t know where this life will take me but eventually I know it’ll lead me back to you

I miss you

I love and miss you too. And yes Momma was amazing! She still is because she's continuing to live through her three vessels. And I've decided to introduce the world to Momma although I'm not sure how yet-maybe a blog in her honor
