I'll Leave You A Name Poem by Letter From My Mother's Womb

I'll leave you a name

You're a miracle,
You're a blessing,
You aren't of an oracle,
Towards you, I'll be caring!

You're like a treasure,
To be hunted on a quest,
I may be able to travel those miles,
Be my guest!

On the day of your birth,
The heavens shall rejoice,
For your arrival on earth,
I wish to name you Joyce!

Mountains will be released,
Just as chains will be brokened,
Waterfalls won't be stopped,
Mountain view, topped!

You're a mother's love,
A father's sacrifice,
A sister's beloved,
A brothers pride!

You're his king,
You're her prince,
You're their leader,
For this, I'll leave you a name!

You're your relatives flower,
You hearts protea,
Your loved ones rose,
Too much flattery, do not overdose!

For health, you'd worshipped
For wealth, you'd be called
For earth, you'd be idolised
You'll rise, to the level of the sky!

Nations will look up to you,
Your community and neighborhood,
Take this, I'll leave you a name;
You shall be 'Prosperity'!
