Childhood Sunday Mornings

Sultra

Early mornings awaken from a deep slumber

 Shower is taken, Personal hygienes are complete with no time to spare 

Dressed and ready for Church with, family  right on time

Mother is praying,  father waiting for breakfast to be served

Hot grits and butter, with eggs and toast served on the plate, then washed down with water

Hair combed and brushed by older Sister so mommy is pleased

Gospel music is blasting on the radio while Praising the Lord Hallelujah with no guilt or shame

Church Service was lit,  now it's time to be dismissed 

Riding home in a Station Wagon full to capacity, don't wanna miss this

The teenagers  in the seats, with the little ones on their laps  buckled up for the ride 

Driving home in a hurry with the Pastor on our tail and the family not far behind

Let's go inside, sit down for Sunday dinner 

Come on dig in
