A child of color singing away <br />Like there is no tomorrow or a next day; <br />You sound sincere with your godly voice <br />Impacting the young to make the right choice. <br />Taking the crowd one by one as if to make them fall in love. <br />You tell them to “Come with you” <br />As if you were taking them by the hand. <br />Your words tell them not to worry <br />They don’t have to be alone. <br />Of course your hearts gonna break <br />Everyone has got to learn. <br />A child to a child you must move along.<br /><br />Erika Peace<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/voice-of-the-young-in-the-voice-of-maya-angelou-defining-singing-artist-sammie/
