MotherK
Saint Mary was her place of birth her name was Kenesha but Mary after the first;
no saint in sight but had everyone in fright
Nine times two the age of independence but at Five times four she had as much independence as jamaica in 1961
Her beauty was unmatched but her brain was detached,
Used and confused Mother K had a life to choose....
Be unemployed with two boys with little joy or get her life started
Mother K quickly departed from the Black, green and gold colors and was spotted in white red and blue,
no one had a clue what Mother K was going to do
She became a helper to the elderly
treating them good and tenderly
Oh what love Mother k has for her boys , always sending them gifts and toys
What a lovely lady she has become
and never forgot where she came from
