Dear black woman,
The beam of thy smile
Makes my heart beat
Like a talking drum
The sweetness of thy voice
Like soft melody to my ears
Makes butterflies flutter in my belly
And my head swell
And they say
A man isn't supposed to feel this way.
Dear black woman,
I love the way
Thy black woolly hair
Accentuate the curve of thy egg face
And the sweet nectar
Of thy soft thick lips
I am lost
In the fire in thy eyes
And how thy melanin rich skin
Gleam in the sun
With the glints of a million stars
Dear black woman,
You shine so bright
Even the sun rages
Jealous of thy sight
You're a priceless work of art.
Made from rare clay
Crafted by the ingenious hands
Of the Potter of the sky
A gift on the wheel of fortune
Forged in the heat of a dying star
Dear black woman
You are my muse
You are rain drops amidst a drought
You are worth a thousand more
You inspire in more ways than one.
You give strength to my cause
Thy love give me wings
Let me etch your name in the clouds
Serenade you from mountain tops
Write ballads in praise of thy beauty
And bathe in the spring of thy wisdom.
