Kaila George Poem by Ralph O'Grantson

Kaila George



Into the womb i was birth
Put me back
Love from no one I get, like a slave black
They eat me up like a quick snack

Inside my womb like a hearth
They take me brutally
My life spins cruelly
Oh take me back somebody

Inside this round called earth
I am prisoner to filthy secrets
hidden like blood smeared on red roses
All this dirt under white sheets

In this lifetime, What's my worth
I am the story of love
I am the kid that survived the shove
Today i live free, White as a dove

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This is dedicated to my mother.friend.and teacher Kaila George
She's been through it all.The struggles the pain and the shame, now all she knows is happiness, always head high.she is love in flesh.

Ralph, this is a magnificent, and bread-warming tribute to someone who has obviously had a most auspicious impact on your life, despite ostensibly the many Crosses she has beared...I have read several of her own works and conversate with her about this site and poetry in general...Both of you have the gift of Silent Word and the above tributive to a Mom, Mentor & Friend quite worthy of such potentate praise is proof solid...Nice Work! ~FjR~

I really love this poem, for the way you wrote it, I can feel the emotions writen inside of it. This poem is writen very great, with a great ending of becoming free, and to be able to do what you want, great job!

A study in survival, strength and beauty in motherhood. Protecting and teaching her young, that they may thrive despite seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Ralph, well written. I commend you.
