Truly SAPA

Original Submission by Darrell Allen

Never doubt yourself that's all my true mom said.

Always go for the crown and the flag that's true to the head

Not for one moment I thought slavery was dead

I always kept a open eye and kept all ink lead.

I'll pound and pound my chest to get better reception.

I'll down and down the best and take no others correction.

It never took much to see my life was a blessing.

I'll cross oceans and the sea just to find my profession.

It took time but time is what makes man and woman.

By design we are made perfect so perfect I stay to end is nothing.

What reasons and how much I love this world is touching.

I go seasons if you can believe it I've earned my something.

One way you can tell if this earth is believable

Is by going by weather the things on this earth is achievable.

Going by if the things in life is perceivable.

So in time you can tell if timeless is reachable

Pure in nature I say I'm grateful I stand unhateful

I pray I stay full and lay and wake to days I take to.

Surely thankful I made my anchor, I paved my way to times no anger. What a

day and view to think from, I love my life God that's truly SAPA.
