Teachers of Today
There is too much emphasis
we put on our color we need
to get down to basics and culture
Our children ask questions when
they just don't know, the answers
we give, they'll use as they grow.

Words of A Poet
Poetry is good poetry is great
poetry is something that I create

Mother of Two
It's never been written on
how it's been done
but baring these children
comes second to none
just having one is so hard to do,
it takes a great gift to be the
mother of two
A boys closest treasure is his
mother..that's true<... more

For the Love of a Sister
I'd like everyone to meet my sister
she's beautiful can't you see
it might just be in the eye of the
beholder, but it makes no
difference to me
We shared a lot when we were
young..the bed included too,
and sis I remember the bo... more

Answer to God

There once was this old lady who
bought me some shoes
and a pretty little dress that match
them too
It wouldn't be long before her
trustworthy smile began to radiate
her grotesque and manipulative style

Bless Thy Father
God bless my father for every day
he deserves to be blessed I can honestly say
he took my hand to show me the way
while clearing a path for me he'd say..
"Follow this path I clear today, for I'll
never leave you or lead you a stray"

NIGHTTIME SALMES
Now I lay me down to sleep

Generation after generation

Hi Donna, welcome to Jacket Flap. You have lived through some painful and hard things in your life. You could use this to write for young adults and help them in their struggles. You could include some of your poems on this site so we could read them.

Epiphany
I awoke from a dream the other day
it wasn't a normal dream for me
and I woke up in a cold, cold sweat
because I'd had an epiphany
