Camila Chidume Poet Free verse

Aries black

Beauty of the African women
Not just the eyes lens
It's colour;
Her lips
Regal neck
Fragile collar bone...
Stunning
Breath taking
Beauty is in the eyes of thy beholder
If you let me
I'll hold you Aries
My eyes will be your mirror
Words can't express
A mere "I love you"
You are much more than I have heard
Much more than you see
A magnificent diamond indeed
Let me hold you ?
Comfort your cheek with my palm
Breaths intertwined
Bodies warmest
Tie me to your tongue my love
Nma my love
Aries black
An ancient beauty
Africa's black woman
The absolute love of my life
Rhythm to my words
Blues in my voice
Words made
Words to come
Words I want to say
Words can't describe you
Words can't show them
Nmasinachi
My Aries black

I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

Alison A Smith nee Howarth August 28, 2026 at 3:30 PM This is a stunning free verse tribute. The short, breathless lines beautifully capture the intimacy of the piece, drawing the reader from the striking physical imagery of the subject's regal neck and fragile collarbone straight into a deeply emotional connection. The repetition of "Words" in the latter half builds a wonderful rhythm, perfectly echoing the frustration of language falling short when trying to capture such magnificent, absolute love. It is truly a breathtaking read!
