HAVE YOU HEARD?

Wait, have you heard?
Have you heard about that woman
That resides somewhere in Africa,
Living with the spirit of Motherhood.

Have you heard about her?
That woman of faith,
Who dived regularly recklessly
Into the river of love.

Have you heard about her?
That woman that fought pain and agony,
To bring forth the unborn
To the world of the living.

Have you heard about her?
That selfless woman of unending smiles,
With a beaming hope of the future,
The future of her fruits.

For me, I found her,
Although not quite long ago,
Residing somewhere in Africa,
The mother to a friend.

I am Emmanuel
