The pride of mama

He is the son 
His mama’s proud son 
She called him Bonny when he was born 
Proud to have a handsome man she says 
He is white as snow and black but not as coal 
His intelligence is beyond my brain  
But I endured him with pain 

For my heart spits blessings 
Whenever his name is mentioned 
The presents he gives is not compared to the Ferrari we see 
For his genuine stretched hand towards me 
It’s more than enough for me 
For my happiness claims of his prosperity before the Lord
