Born and raised in the South Bronx, New York (USA) I figured some thoughts, words, and musings of me would be entertaining- particularly because I say what I mean and of course I mean what I say.
Yes, I am an educated African-American woman. Yes, I am a poet. Yes, I am emotional. Yes, I am strong. Yes, I am opinionated. Yes, I am single. Yes I am an avid drinker of coffee. Yes I am in constant struggle- oh and I can not spell, so don't judge [ok maybe a bit] Don't be scared, just be willing

The Man I Love
Billie Holiday
Someday he'll come along, The man I love And he'll be big and strong, The man I love And when he comes my way I'll do my best to make him stay
He'll look at me and smile, I'll understand Then in a little while, He'll take my hand And though it seems absurd I know we both won't say a word
Maybe I shall meet him Sunday, Maybe Monday, maybe not Still I'm sure to meet him one day Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day
He'll build a little home, That's meant for two From which I'll never roam, Who would, would you And so all else above I'm dreaming of the man I love
