Alright now you brothers, fathers, granddads, and uncles don't
throw a tantrum thinking that I forgot about you! Cause I didn't
nor would I.  I must always give respect to the true men out there
for without you where would we be. A woman can not make a
child alone, just as two females can't make a baby. So yes we
sisters must give honor and respect to the men of our nations.
Even though much of society has done its best to destroy our
men, we must love you, nuture you, heal you, and guide you.
Oh yes, and every now and again a good bop upside the head.
Just kidding. Well sometimes you men act so silly! Men never
grow out of being little boys. Anyways, we love ya's and we need
you's. So don't go away and leave us. That's not the way our
Father intended it to be.

FATHER

The first time I saw tears run down your face,
I felt as though the world had stopped without a trace,
It wasen't until then that I truly knew,
It takes a real and true man to shed a few.
@@@
Not afraid to show deep emotion,
A man like that has true devotion,
Just as it takes a real man to admit when he is wrong,
This character trait comes only from the very strong.
@@@
So you true fathers out there teach your sons well,
Thus over the course of time, time will tell,
Just how much of a man you truly are,
Because a true man shines bright like a star.
@@@
Not a fool rushing in where Angels dare not tread,
He is courageous, as wisdom he's been feed,
He knows just when to start or when to stop,
His spirit soars like the Eagle apon a mountain top.
@@@
Yes True Man, Father of mine,
A love like yours is so hard to find,
So no man will be able to take your place,
I'll search for a man that walks your pace.

BROTHER

You protected me and kept me sheltered from the unkind,
And when I screamed and kicked you wouldn't mind,
Because you knew I had to release somehow,
All those pent up feelings and wow.
@@@
You knew when and when not to poke fun,
If there was ever trouble, you'd come and run,
When I cried you'd kiss away my tears,
You'd even listen intently to all my fears.
@@@
I learned how to dance because of you,
I learned how to flirt, cause you gave the queue,
You gave me that extra boost I needed,
I learned to pay attention, to you I heeded.
@@@
It's because of you dear brother,
That I am so particular about a lover,
No not just any man will do,
He'll have to be a whole lot like you.

PAPA KIKI {My Grandfather}

There was time a time you stood tall and proud,
Your voice was firm yet never loud,
Dark eyes that told of unspoken mysteries,
A proud and vivid Ancestry.
@@@
You brought your family to America to escape poverty,
And was robbed of your vast dignity,
You did your best to shelter us from the shame,
We saw how you carried so much pain.
@@@
"Viva La Mexico", we'd hear you sing,
In our hearts it would always ring,
Know your culture and who you are,
Then if you get lost it won't be far.
@@@
You severd in the Army and served it well,
We'd look forward to the stories you'd tell,
Then you got sick and one by one your legs they took,
Yet that didn't keep you down or take away the look.
@@@
A proud Mexican American is what we are,
And thou you are not near but far,
I'll remember your look of proud dignity,
Because of you I know my vast Ansectry.
