Grandmas Prayers

We were young and full of energy as we played in the hot sun in the front of our grand mothers house

Mid day my grand mother would come out on the porch and scream ' kids it's time to eat

One by one we would enter

Wash your dirty hands clean before yall set at my table 

Eight of us with hands clean set at the table with noses full of that southern home cooked aroma

My grand mother served each of us the same portion before she set at the head of the table

Know yall bow yalls head so that I can say Grace

You know it's been over 45 years since and this is what I'll remember about my grand mother for all of my days

I firmly believe her prayers is the reason behind why me and my cousins are all succeessful to this day
