An Afro-American-Jamaican Haiku Tribute To Mothers

(APROPOS OF THE MANY OF US: THE GREEN VILLAGE) PROLOGUE: Some don’t quite get it… Life will reveal it to you: Mothers are of God. A Keeping hope alive… Strong stalwart sable sisters: These are our mothers. B Ebony beauty… Sustaining us in all things: God bless our Mothers. C Beautiful sable souls… Audaciously bold in faith: Praise God for Mamas. D Ploughing up our hope… Tears nourishing our courage: Moms cultivate men. E God’s labouring wombs… Moulding navels of His love: Mothers…God’s angels… EPILOGUE: Happy Mothers’ Day… Queens of our eternity: Navel giving souls…
