Dedication:
In the womb which we are created; we are swaddled in darkness with an Angel's wings,
upon our birth, Heaven cries and from the blossoming of God's grace we began to open our eyes.
Through life's cycle we stumble and fall; but as wer are his children,
with love in our hearts, we always stand tall ( Angel wiped our Knees).
I did the tasks that were given with out complaining and without deciets; I stayed strong in my faith as I; not alone
Planted seeds.
Grow from my journey, and come closer not just in time of needs, do not mourn me
for I have received my wings, so now as I watch over all of you (I can wipe your Knees)
The Soul has risen & I am at peace, the gates are opened and Heaven sings
By: Bernadette "Ayisha" Toppin
