Success

Cold winter days White school socks with polish marks on Walking through the bush as my ears bite Just the two of us She was so tiny with the little dress Arriving at school before the rest Cleaning our shoes Changing our socks Warm…. as the clouds are clearing stick sweets, fruit juice and a pie the cheese girls we were called nothing is what it seems saving money to buy lunch after school going home to cook and clean the princesses as they would say new shoes, new jeans, new hoody, they know nothing mommy worked alone bought everything paid the bond all alone daddy fixed computers here and there people who were family never really cared as supper was served with laughter, joys and prayers every night a hug we both got before we closed our eyes I passed my senior year and everything was going alright Work …work..& studies all night Promoted.. Successful.. Everything came on Gods time Not one moment do I regret the steps that led to my success.
