Frieda Lumpkins Poems

Intimidation, is a very strong word
But apparently, very few never heard
It only hurts people, but you don't care
These are my feelings, I have to share
...

True friends never let you down
When you need them, they are always around
I have one of these friends
She is my friend til the end
...

Raised up with seven brothers and sisters
We were poor, we never had the game twister
One thing we had, was a thing call, a spinning jenny
Our Dad made it for us kids, because there were so many
...

I believe when you are hired to do a job
You were not put into office to be a snob
Some people think they are better than others
You were hired to help one another
...

Just a plain ole country girl
My writing, leaves some peoples head in a whirl
I put on paper, whats on my mind
I am sorry, if these poems sound unkind
...

I never talk much about my Dad
Because, when I do I get very sad
I can't give my dad much credit
Dad didn't raise us, mom did it
...

It's not funny.you will see
If this happen's to you, and not just me
...

God, Why want they stop
Every time they go by, my heart just drops
It's been a all day thing today
And all I want is. for them to go the other way
...

Oh what wicked webs some weave
So much so, a lot would not believe
Has anyone thought to ask?
Is that your face or is it a mask
...

All we have are pictures,
Your body taken away
At the time there was no brother or sisters
There was only me
...
