Standing proud, Saying LOUD,
“Lord, Have Mercy on me!”
I am a queen
Not of village or place but of beauty and grace
My reign will outlast my numbered years
I am strong
Whether alone or as two, my resolve will not move
I know I can conquer the world
I am complex
Through my heart flow rivers of love
I am delightful
Sexy and sweet, a delectable treat
My essence is a gift to mankind
A café swirl, a brown-tinted girl,
My earthen-toned skin emanates loveliness
I am a survivor
Of pasts unfulfilled and bruised Spirit, …Still,
I continue to push toward greatness
