Her legacy,
The decade was the 40’s
The powerhouse was a woman
The woman was Joanitta
Joanita was my grandmother…
Her daughter,
The decade was the 60’s
The magic was a vessel
The vessel is my mother
My mother is Flavia Sanyu…
Her granddaughter,
The decade was the 90’s
The miracle was a light
The light is me
I am Sanyu Joanita.
My names, their legacy.
Their legacy, my essence!
Today I honour the roots of my joy, my name, Sanyu.
I love the flow of your poem ... taking us down memory lane from its origin to the current
