Patricia

Patricia is the name I always heard 
From the people they called our neighbors 
They said,she's a widow for almost 13 years 
She's to be proud someday by her children 
Because she's a mother who had a great dream 
Not for herself but to her good children 
Behalf of hard work under the heat of the sun 
She use to bear every pain she had 
Just to earn to support every financial 
That her children might get when they needed 
I heard them say that Patricia dream 
To see her children walk in different road 
Where the way of living is smooth 
Years pass,I grow with understanding 
About Patricia I now understand everything 
Why I feel proud when I heard her name 
I feel honor to know the owner of the name 
She's a woman who gave me a chance 
To see the beautiful handmaid of the lord 
I treasure Patricia because she is my Mama.
