Poem To Mama

 Dear Mama 

I dreamt that we were in a car that was hijacked 

And I tried to fight the hijacker because I am a big boy but 

They only mocked me.


I was scared, so you held me and prayed .


Then the hijacker left and we were alone.

So you drove me to a little hill above the city 

An elevator tiptoed down the purple sky 

So we stepped onto it and you took me down the hill 

Holding my thin hand

Looking at the shades of the sky 

And the buildings that were stars

And then we met the moon

The yellow moon like a balloon 

You pointed to it and i laughed 


Mama watch me laugh until tears come out of my eyes

Mama, look at me laugh. Mama, why do you cry?
