Maria

Who is caring, loving, and a hard worker

Who is mother of my mom and my grandmother

Who loves her family, loved to study, and loved to help people

Who felt kinda sad, busy, and sometimes mad

Who feared rain when it flooded her town, not having food the next day, and getting sick and not having money for medication

Who was the best student in school, helped people get better from illnesses, and being a good grandmother

Who wanted to have a good career, and to have a good paying job

Born in and living in Guanajuato, Mexico

Raya
