Growing in grace

I have been rejected
and scorned by strangers

not been kind but
still I am fine.
I’ve been on a long
journey alone for
34 years now. I no
what it is to be

Proclaiming the
true source of my
success.
the great trinity

has given me favor
I am a greatful
soul because I no

humbleness and great knowledge
when i hear people
who have every thing
ending there lives
I say I’ll take life
the bitter with the
sweet as ms Maya
Angelo wrote in
her poem. through it
all yet still I
rise.
