4 Queens and a Pawn
immortalized in pictures mere mortals
more than words, emotions or expressions
for several hours four queens sat
close enough for their reign to water my spirit
souls intertwine mine in need of sun as well
laughter rays shine brightly allowing growth
displaying hope highlighting love giving
selflessly what more could one ask for
unconditional love provides a cornucopia
of good
–Tyrone Alexander
The Start
Back to where we started
Starting to understand where we came from
Understanding the importance of who they are,
Important people who sacrificed so much,
People that came before us, cam before them
Before we were strong enough, they gave so much
Gave us a chance to live
Chance to give of ourselves
Selves that don’t exist without, but what does?
I am me, you are you, BUT…
Who are we responsible for?
–Tyrone Alexander
