Kingston, Jamaica is my birth place, I lived there for the first four years of my life, and to this day I consider it my home. I think of myself as a proud Canadian too but when Im asked, my classification is Jamaican-Canadian. My family moved to Toronto, Canada on August 1988. Since coming here Ive been thoroughly immersed into many cultures and ideals that where once alien to me.
Jamaican by nature but Canadian by nurture with lessons abundant
As I grew, my attitudes about love, life, and money remain incumbent
The places Ive lived, be it safe or dangerous leaves nothing to be ashamed
This book isnt about getting in the lime light or seeking fame
If there is anything learned from this book, my outlook on life is to blame
My mind races with thoughts of loved ones and naysayers all the same
Because of the raw nature of my mind, these words could no longer be contained
So I spill my thoughts and life lessons on these pages for your mind to retain
Growing up in many places from rural landscapes to urban concrete lakes
Ive seen with my own eyes, that the more you know the higher the stakes
Im not seeking fame but Im not apposed to the title of a great.
My life like the city is layered with different colors and tastes much like a cake
If the ideals in these pages do not rise in your heart, give it time to bake.
Writing is my means to an end, and life is shorter than just around the bend
Treat the people around you as kind as your lovers and friends
Enjoy each page of this book, so you can find the means to your end.view less
