Ode To Mrs Obama

Our first image of a gorgeous black Aphrodite To inhabit the halls of power with charm, Mrs. Obama moves over the sacred fields deftly Reclaiming the realm with femininine form. Sensuously challenging those who dare deny Her right to bare her bronze sun-kissed skin As the queen in a staid pallid white world, She assumes her role with no hint of giving in. A worthy image of beauty to accompany a giant of a man, Mrs. Obama came riding eastward her sword at her side. She planned for an agenda about change most would scorn, As a product of northern honing oil and heartland pride. And she feared not the hard and awful destiny ahead For a beautiful black woman in a loveless town; As she brought her fashion for elegance and flair, Allowing a gawking world to see her face was brown. As a Capricorn, Mrs. O keeps her keen focus on success, Never surrendering to impatience, doubt or hesitation. Her aim is narrow and exact, skillfully chosen And moored on a carefully thought out foundation. So doing she has inspired black women to reach higher And see themselves as lovely creatures of great worth, Endowed by God to motivate, teach, feed and entertain, With her nurturing, an emerging color diverse earth.
