The People of Mc Donald St

Where it says ' It takes a village to raise a child! ' it's a ststement that's true! Where a community can come together to share their problems for a while. Is only a time I knew. You see, it was not just only a community. It was something more than unity of many races. The parlors,grocery and markets were the people I was blessed to know in those places. Love and values were the molding part of my life's journey. From the ones who came and gone and left a part of them with me. It took a community to become a family. That's why as a child everyone their was uncle and aunty.But then years has passed and seasons come and gone. So as the people on Mc Donald St. moved on. Homes becoming Offices, Casinos and Car parks were the changes that Happen then. But the love and values of Mc Donald Street will always be with me like a familiar friend.
