Patrice Trice Jackson Poet Free verse

Mama

Mama a strong black sister
doesn't take any mess from no one
she thought me self-respect
was my father and mother

never complain when times got hard
inspired me to be the woman I am
inspired me to follow my dreams 
inspired me to be independent 

thought me to never disregard who you are
love yourself
never settle 
inspired me to never be a lifeless woman
