SultryRose's Signatures





Big Sis was peddling
tators or somethin.
She took me 2 an ole shack.
It was a way time back.

My black gramma she say,
2 my 16 year ole,
"If u do goods things
U got good things 2
look forward to
but if u do bad
U got bad 2 look to.

Them words of wisdom
stuck deep in my soul.
Unconscienly did vow
that, I'd do it somehow.

Anger took over when men
jus walked all over me.
Didn't know how to luv myself
As I laid morals on a shelf

Then one day a white knight,
he brought forgiveness,
came to free my broken soul.
Dear ones, don't cha know?

Long ago I called him Hiawatha

Foot note: Now I know her as an angel "cause she's long ago quit walking this Earth in a Physical being. Honestly after sittin in church for many years other than healings etc. that ole lady planted a seed with so few words that has kept me going thru the years. I'd also like to dedicate this to Marty Michelle, My oldest daughter). You'll make it thru girl. 4-eva luv, yomomma

What an awesome poem/song lyrics. I really loved this stanza :

"Anger took over when men
jus walked all over me.
Didn't know how to luv myself
As I laid morals on a shelf"

Great write! :D

What a very wise poem/song Emy, this was so well writen and the beauty of it just shines.

Them words of wisdom
stuck deep in my soul.
Unconscienly did vow
that, I'd do it somehow.


I think those lines were just outstanding, very nicely done. Thanks for posting it.

Great people in the world say a few words with a powerful impact. And their legacy is passed on to the generations. Great write. I can appreciate the words.
