My Piece on her Piece called "If I Should Have a Daughter"

This week my theme was the idea of future children or daughters. Sarah Kay is a big inspiration of mine because she does a lot of things I like to do. She is from New York and is considered to be a spoken word poetry teacher along with being a filmmaker and a photographer. In my near future I would like to do all of the things like she does. This poem is about all of the things she will tell her future daughter and how she will raise her. She starts off the poem by saying her daughter will call her point B so she knows that she can always find her. She talks about hows she will tell her daughter how real life is and not tell her it's all rainbows and butterflies and that reminds me of the way I plan to raise my children. I think this poem is so realistic and honest and coming from a woman I find it a lot easier to relate to the things she is saying (I have found that guys find it easier to relate to what Andrew Tyree is saying). My favorite line of this poem is when she says "remember your mama is a worrier and your papa is a warrior and you are the girl with small hands and big eyes who never stops asking for more" because it sounds so true and ideal. From this poem she seems like she will make a great mother and will lover her daughter and raise her so well.
