This magnolia I’m speaking of is the author/writer of a new book of “poe’ tree” so graciously named by the same title. She’s a Southern Belle fo real, and a native of Tupelo, Ms. You might know her, cause she is my frend, and might be your own frend on the HBCU websites.

REFLECTIONS OF A MISSISSIPPI MAGNOLIA
When I look back on my life,
I think how wonderful it has been;
To have had the most wonderful parents of all,
And a host of wonderful friends.
My high school days were blissful,
And my college days so fun;
Fond memories are one thing for sure,
That I have by the ton.
I'm so glad that I grew up on Mississippi sod,
My t-shirt reads: "American by birth,

And Southern by the grace of God"
My life has been so wonderful,
I wouldn't change one condition;
As one friend of mine always says,
I should have paid admission.
