“Sports”

Sports

Based on the poem,”For My People”

by Margaret Walker

This is for my people, who play sports

with their good attitudes

and like kids to play someday

in their lives

For my people,

who are criticized and expected a lot of

who are part of the team “that just isn’t good enough”

For my people,

who  are always focused

who are never giving up

For my  people

who play sports never stop believing

and stay strong!
