Beautiful Black Woman

Chances are
You are beautiful
No need for second glances
You are

Your caramel skin
Your moon glow ivory grin
Mellow brown eyes
Your strong barren thighs
Those perfectly geo-metric breasts
Plum ruby-tan brown lips
God made all of this

Chances are
You are beautiful
No need for second glances
You are
God made you whole
Beautiful black woman

Your intelligent
Your nurturing gifts
sometimes Mother and Father
So much wisdom
Courageous choice
Such a lovely voice
I love the more of you
You are bronze, tan, brown, blacken and blued
Wonderful you

Chances are
You are beautiful
No need for second glances
You are
God made you whole
Beautiful black woman
   and I thank God for making you
Beautiful black woman
   and I thank God for making you
