Black Woman

Black woman, beautiful and proud. Black woman, submissive not loud. Black woman, most elegant and pure. Black woman, strong and ready to endure. Black woman, sisters of the nation. Black woman, God's most important creation. Black woman, the replenisher of the earth. Black woman, never given her true worth. Black woman, neglected, abused, trampled, & misused! Black woman, their minds & bodies seem confused. Black woman, crying out, reaching out in distress! Black woman, inner strength keeps her arrest! Black woman, the center & replenisher of life. Black woman, there is not left much strife. Black woman, as gentle as a dove.! Black woman, so many qualities in one phenomenal being. Black woman, mind & body freeing! Black woman, remember all of the above. Black woman, know that in you, there is much love!!
