EXCERPT

THE ONES I WROTE OF

The ones I wrote of are big

The ones I wrote of are large

The ones I wrote of are real

The ones I wrote of are wide

And so, the ones I wrote of are a part of my people

A reason I’ve been singing, they are a part of my living

The ones I wrote of are a part of my thinking Young and old alike, certainly a part of my being That’s why I say.. the ones I wrote of are different from who they were yesterday

The ones I wrote of are much advanced beyond their ages

The ones I wrote of are special people on earth The ones I wrote of are with a special rhythm I admire

And so, the ones I wrote of are in a place far from issues

The ones I wrote of are in a place close to mercy The ones I wrote of shall be elevated soon Celebrating me also, the ones I wrote of shall be celebrated soon…

The Ones I Wrote Of!
