African Body
Her skin color looking like a highlighted shade
Of the African brown soil
Her hair looked like a leafless tree
Its roots floating onto the naked ocean figured like the curve
Of an African woman
Her lazy eyes looking like the moon of raise
Her nose shaped like the earth
Her cheeks blushing like a butterfly in the garden of Eden
Her smile like the sun in the open sky
White teeth looking like the clouds gold teeth in middle like the sun
Her lips looking like a Mauritius resort
Her voice singing like birds with cellos, pianos and guitars
Her neck looking like waterfall flowing down
Her boobs looking like two straight separate mountains
Her stomach looking like an African beach
Her legs and arms looked like the river streams flowing into the ocean
The sweet, southern, African piece
With an un-random bush
