A Piece of Me
Author Dana Redricks
May 12, 2017
My mother taught me how to love
and forgive
This woman of God Ms. Vera showed me
That I should love the Lord my God,
With all my heart, soul and mind
My principle Ms. Louis taught me
to believe I can and she spoke in a
Way we all could understand
My music teacher Mr. Fincher taught me the power
of music and how to face my fear and
to meet each challenge of my life even if I had
To do it afraid
Ms. Chastain taught me how to be creative
And see things in a whole new way
All these people helped me spread my wings
To find my way
They have become a piece of me
because of the roots, they have planted
deep within me
They have left behind a legacy
