A Mother and Her Son: Life in Poetry Priscilla M. Houston

This book is an expression of love between a mother and her son. Each one looks through different lenses at the same world - a different sameness. At times, they meet at the kitchen table. At times, each one goes where the other cannot tread. Hear the triumphs and the pitfalls of a woman's life, the world she pressed through. See the victories and danger zones of a young man's life as he grows up in the streets of New York. Yet, these are experiences faced by every young person growing up in America. Each poem is a step to higher trust in God and self, a real faith walk. So get your tissue and your tambourine and enjoy the journey. To the reader, I say: Woman behold thy son, and son behold thy mother.
