Hey Kwe, Just listened to your new track. LOVE IT! You're so amazing, you know that? Raven and I look forward to seeing you when we come to the coast this summer. Peace, Brenda
There is no one quite like you
Born into this word through the womb
A place that is holy and sacred
Creator made no mistake when he created you
To the Men Thank you for being our protectors & defenders
To the Women Thank you for the countless works you do
I celebrate both men and women this weekend because without one there is not the other.
Happy Mothers Day
