Subject: Mother To Son/- by: Langston Hughes
Content: Well son, I'll tell you Life for me ain't been no crystal stair It's had tacks in it And splinters And boards torn up And places with no carpet on the floor Bare But all the time I'se been climbin on and reachin landin's And turnin corners And sometimes goin in the dark Where there ain't been no light So, Boydon't you turn back Don't you set down on the steps Cause you find it kinda hard Don't you fall now For I'se still goin honey I'se still climbin And life for me, ain't been no crystal stair written by: Langston Hughes 1902 -1967
