Verlena S. Walker Poet Nonet

A Supernova

(Supernova)...
              
              The Hills of Mississippi and the
              Sextons and Porters is where the 
              blood mixed. Emma Porter and
              Lenny Sexton became
              one - married - life bond-
              ed.  They had five
              children and 
              farmed
              corn.

              Their children were name Donnie, Jeb, Mae
              Emma, and Lenny.  Emma was 
              the Church School teacher of all.
              little ones. Ages went from 
              four to nine. The grow-
              ups said she did
              a fine job.
              No qualms
              form.

              Emma Porter-Sexton lived a life 
              of greatness.  A great-grandmother
              to Verlena Sexton.  A 
              blessing given by God.
              Her family was
              fulfilled by her
              love. Emma 
              Porter
              Leads!
