My morning started off calm
I awoke from the tweets
from the birds who were outside my window
perched up on a tree
i headed downstairs for a bite to eat
and i was greeted by my entire family
moms frying eggs and plantain
dads got a cup of tea
rest of my siblings are scrambling round the kitchen
doing their individual things
i pause for a moment
basking in the gratitude i feel for these scenes
later in the day i link up with the gang
which is always a treat
we headed down to the water
it was our favorite spot to meet
laughing about nothing
running amuck through the streets
the days i spent with them
i always felt the most free
by 6pm the gang is itching to get into an activity
we go home
change clothes
and make our way to the roller rink
the dj is setting the tone
playing all the hottest beats
rolling with my entire crew
you’ll fasho catch us rolling dirty
hitting crazy dance moves
giggling at the newbies who fall to their knees
at the end of the night we head to the water one more time
to chat over a blunt about the things we seen
when we finally decide to part ways it was almost 3
i wish the days we spent like this last for eternity
being surrounded by no judgement
and love that comes with no fee
spending time with the people i love
is always a perfect day to me
