"A Place Called Home" by Justin Williams

The place I call home is grandma's space

Just down the road from Centerwood

Where we eat, sleep, play and say

How we are thankful each day that we are living

Where I can finally say I found safe haven

You smell food like a strong fragrance from down the street

A hello and great big hug is how we greet

We open our arms open wide

So that you feel homey, nice and warm inside

You smell the gumbo cooking on a pot

I'm sure that once you eat it 'll hit the spot

The place I call home is grandma's space

Where you can find a smile on my face

Its saddens me when we all have to leave

But the feeling is not sour but very sweet

We always stay together its just how we do

A good morning from grandma a

Goodnight to that she gives to me

And now to you

So this is grandma's space so sit and relax

The weight will be all off your shoulders

Where you can find love as big as a boulder

This is a place that i call home

For me and everyone in my family

Love is what holds us together

Together we are home.

"The Evolution of J" by Anonymous

Stemming from being most hated to most loved uttering nothing but pain and destruction by the sound of her lips to speaking nothing other than life into others Burning bridges and getting hurt, never fearing the consequences Always learning from your mistakes because that's the only way you knew how to grow Fighting to stay alive through all the trials and obstacles You almost gave up until your 3 reasons to live came to save your life I have been blessed to interact with a lot of great people in my life but none can compare to you The presence you have in a room to command attention, your ability to vibrate your lips at a speed where sound penetrates the air and people stop to listen, or the confidence you carr...
