Where I am From
I am from Love
A passionate, enchanting, Spontaneity filled Love.
A Till death do them part love...
I am from a single Mother
Death did them part, and brought us close
Our bond became enriched with dress up games, homework help, and confidential conversations
I am from a village
When death did them part, made her single, and brought us close; along came collaborators
Working on turning a princess into a mature, sophisticated and exceedingly successful, adult
I am from experience
A single mother and a village could only show me the way
I made the final decision
Whether it is to listen and take their word, or learn and take my own
Customarily I listened, but if there wasn’t an agreeance I took my chances
I am from education
“A’s and B’s, don’t bring home no C”, she would say
“Abrayel is a great student she received a B, but I know she’s capable of an A”, they would say
“Do good in school, and you’ll get a surprise”, they used to say
“I’m going to be exceptionally successful at whatever I choose to pursue”, I say!
I am from growth
Before I become an efficacious student and a beautiful, courageous woman
I will grow!
