" Words From a Son"

“Oh Mama”

Oh Mama, There not enough words in the dictionary that can define
What you mean to me

Oh Mama, you made away for us when I was young even when that
Way was to impossible for me to see

Oh Mama, you clothed us, shelter us, and fed us when we hungered for
Something to eat, with the meager finances
You had for support didn’t deter your spirit or
Robbed you of your strength to a submission of being weak

Oh Mama, we may not had the best of the best, but we had the best of the 
Best of the best at the expense of your sacrifice to
Provide the necessities needed even at your less

Oh Mama, your are thee essence that is constructed and formulated together
To generated and develop the mother of the universe
Which is a queen

Oh Mama, I appreciate you more then you could imagine or see, I know I don’t
Tell you much but believe me lady! Your present
Is truly blessful beside me, yes indeed

Oh Mama, my thoughts and feeling that I display may be low and silent, but the
Love I have for you is louder then any bell or sound that
Can wake the world up when life is still and hearts are quieted 

Oh Mama, I know I act crazy a lot and do a lot of crazy things, but I thank GOD for
Creating you and I thank GOD for you creating me

Oh Mama, I love ya ma! Peace.
