Kenneth R Jenkins Poems

Is it enough
To being Black in America
To being in America?
First fired
...

in memory of the children of South Africa


Freedom!
...

Monday's child raised up in the morning
Away to school for another day.
Tuesday child makes ready for another day,
Making the best of what that may come their way.
...

The soul of Jazz
Where Jazz is soul
And the soul of Jazz is within
Bringing back the days old
...

My muse-
My way of escape into a world
Of rhymes and words
Sprinkled in with other words.
...

No matter the distance
Between us in miles,
No matterthe lifespan,
Spread all thewhile
...

Heavenly peace was upon the Earth,
Heaven shook; God's grace was put upon for Glory's worth,
Suddenly a star appeared in the mist thereof,
A Child, Savior of the World born of his love,
...

It's in your soul
Until it gets in your skin,
Then you try everything in you
To pull from it
...

Around
And
Round
It goes.
...

(A ghetto type of verse)

I am trippin'off of you
And the things that you do,
...
