A mother of Three

A mother of three, 
Her heart full of glee,
She works hard every day,
To make ends meet in every way.

She's raising her kids alone,
But she's never on her own,
For she has the strength and will,
To make her dreams come true still.

She knows that life can be tough,
But she's determined to be enough,
To give her children the best,
And let them soar above the rest.

So here's to the girl with three,
Who's raising her kids with glee,
May your dreams come true one day,
And may you find your own special way.

Check on us mothers out there we may make it look easy at times but trust me we can use a few words of encouragement ??Keela baby?

Time won’t wait

Yesterday is gone, tomorrow hasn’t come yet, we have only today to cherish each and every moment with family and friends. As humans we can only do our best and let God handle the rest, everyday we are put to a test at life, never knowing if there’s gonna be a tomorrow only god knows his plans for us, we know there is supposed to be an after life as we out here fighting the antichrist, but this is what we call life. It’s hard definitely not for the weak and every time I close my eyes I think “lord please let me accomplish my goals, my dreams, make someone smile, let me be able to give to someone in need, lord before I go let me make my family proud, and whenever they think of me they smile”. This short life hurts, it hurts.. since we all have to go life itself is a cancer and we are all fighting to stay alive, to be revived, to be one with the lord but still be alive and healthy. The wealthy has the cure but yet if we can’t afford it we are aborted, this short life we can’t afford it lord why???????I’ll

We Are One

We Are One 

We have endured the pain of slavery and segregation
We have fought for our rights and our liberation
We have faced the challenges of racism and discrimination
We have overcome the obstacles of poverty and oppression

We have witnessed the rise of leaders and heroes
We have celebrated the achievements of artists and innovators
We have contributed to the culture and the history of this nation
We have inspired the world with our courage and our vision

We have not given up on our dreams and our aspirations
We have not lost our faith and our determination
We have not forgotten our roots and our traditions
We have not let go of our values and our convictions

We are the descendants of kings and queens
We are the children of God and grace
We are the makers of change and progress
We are the bearers of hope and resilience

We are proud of who we are and where we come from
We are grateful for what we have and what we have done
We are hopeful for what we can and what we will become
We are African Americans, and we are one??
One love Keelababy????

On My Journey To Find Me

On My Journey To Find Me

Soulful eyes, Rich with stories untold
A heritage of strength and a heart of gold
Late 30’s
A prime of life’s unfold
A decade of wisdom, earned through trials bold

My skin a canvas of beauty and grace
With a face hard to replace
In my eyes a fire burns bright and true
A flame of resilience a spirit anew

I’ve weathered storms and emerged stronger still
A warrior Queen with a heart that heals
My Journey has been long
But I’ve walked with courage 
I’ve found my voice and learned to use it well
A story teller with a story to tell

So let my light shine and my spirit soar
For I’am a gift and so much more
A beautiful soul
With a story to share
An African American girl, with a heart that’s rare. ????????That’s me Keela Baby??

Born in the 80’s

We were born in the 80s, when hip hop was fresh and love was real. We grew up in the 90s, when times were tough and we had to hustle. We made it to the 2000s, when the world changed and we had to adapt. We are still here in the 2020s, when challenges are many and we have to overcome. Through it all, we have each other, and that's what matters most. We are Black, we are beautiful, we are blessed. Love y’all ?? Keela baby
