My Mom and Dad

by Silvano Campos

My Mom,

A nice small

Lady, just like me

Thirty-six years old,

Mexican woman,

Hard working woman,

Three sons:

My sister, my brother,

And me.

Proud to be

What she is.

My Mom.

My Dad

A funny man,

Dark skin,

Mexican, like my mom,

Big curly afro.

Strong, smart,

Hard working man.

A good parent,

Showing us (me and my brothers)

How to make

The right decisions.

My Dad.
