A letter to my expected Child(Poem)
Dear seed,
I've found the means to do deeds and full fill my dreams,
Coz your expected,
Thank Gawd, He answered most of my prayers,
Your grandmothers proud, she said I have a good future,
And I'm not dead, well not yet,
Also, your mother is a wonderful woman,
Today I'm happy to say, she's 5 months down and only 4 more to go,
Two week ago, at your altra sound, I heard your heart beat again, what a delighting sound,
The doctor asked if we were ready to know your gender,
Your mother answered "we want it to be a surprise" with a big big smile,
I really didn't mind, coz your already here now, boy or girl your mine, anyhow,
Your the greatest feeling I've ever known,
Its like I already knew, as if I was told,
Since I last spoke to you 6 months ago,
I feel, my mentality has grown,
I have plans to give you a future I never had,
To give you wisdom and knowledge that will force your mind to expand,
Not just another African, a statistic on this land,
Buh give you meaning and understand, that you are more then average, more then just a black man,
But royal in your right, with so much insight, that your future is bright,
Out shine,
And blind,
Those who oppose you,
Believe in yourself with no doubt,
Confidence should be your strength,
Ambition as your scythe,
Hard work as a harpoon,
And respect even the biggest fool,
Coz that person might be a valuable jewel,
But enough with these verbs and nouns,
You already make me proud,
Closure and hope in you I've found,
I love you so much, my expected child.
