I, Renee’ B. Drummond-Brown, am the wife of Cardell Nino Brown Sr. and from our union came Cardell Jr., Renee and Raven Brown. I am the offspring of Mr. and Mrs. Peter C. Drummond of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. My siblings are Delbert D. Drummond and the late Pastor Shawn C. Drummond. I was born in North Carolina, at Camp Lejeune US Naval Hospital. I am a graduate of Geneva College of Pennsylvania, and my love for creative writing is undoubtedly displayed through my very unique style of poetry, which is viewed globally. My poetry is inspired by God and Dr. Maya Angelou. Because of them I pledge this: “Still I write, I write, and I’ll write!” “Renee’s Poems with Wings are Words in Flight” is flown across the seas by God’s raven. There are several Scriptures that I love; however, this one speaks volumes during this ‘season’: “And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.” (Genesis 8:7 KJV) ALL God’s Childrens’ Aint Got “Heavy” Shoes!God placed His heavy weight in my shoes. Therefore, “my feet’s” and I, shall not, be moved, nor complain. The eyelids of my shoes remind me, to watch, fight, and pray. The tongue of my shoe is but a two-edged sword. Speaks volume! Cuts going in! AND…coming out for sure. My shoes’ inner sole reminds me to love the Lord God with all my heart. With all my mind. And, with all my soul! The shoe heel reminds me; to not see the plagues that surround me, nor the valley lows or mountain tops before me, BUT rather to look to the hills from which “MY” help comes. Which is, the Father God (within me). The 2-tied loops, lacing my shoes touts’ a knot, and is but, a threefold cord. The cord represents the noose and the knot reminds me: THAT… I.WEAR. SOME. HEAVY. SHOES. fo sho! ALL God’s childrens’ aint got heavy shoes to bear! I wear a size S.L.A.V.E.R.Y. What size ‘YOU’ wear? Dedicated to: “my Momma,” who taught me how to ‘watch’, fight and pray. I miss you B.A.D. A B.A.D.
