Improv of "To Market"

I purely loved the first line: "All the long way from Jamaica."

All the long way from Jamaica
my parents come to bring me better life.
Life where I run fast through cotton fields of Kentucky,
I learn English from neighbor woman Sally Mae,
billowing gray hair and cat eyed glasses, playing crossword
in the splintering rocking chair by her mason glass of sweet tea
I almost break with my rock toy.
Night means we watch the television set for black and white
western shows, or lay in the nearly dewed grass
counting stars twinkling brighter than the lantern
at the end of the road.
