Daughter To God
Well, God, I'll tell you:
Life for me has been a roller coaster.
It's had its ups in it,
and its downs,
the joys,
and places beneath the valleys-
A roller coaster.
But for the most part,
it's you that keeps me going.
Going for the top,
reaching for the stars,
hoping to make you proud.
Though life has been a roller coaster,
you've always been there to see me through.
Inspired by Langston Hughes poem Mother to son.
