Black Woman

Poem: Black Woman
Edited by: Sparkle Jordan
written: July/2014


Ahhh,
You are 
a 
beauty queen -

You are 
what 
America see's
as 
beautiful.

Your eye's are green,
Your hair, is the color
of the sun -

and
Your skin,  mirrors 
the morning light.

But, 
their is 
another queen,

that 
America,
 haven't crowned -

I see her 
as 
an awesome 
beauty -

A beauty
 that
 out beautify 
beauty -

but
she goes unnoticed, 
She's 
a beauty queen 
too -

Her eyes are brown -
Her hair is locked -
and
Her skin is black as
the Nile.

She's my queen -
and
She's beautiful to me.
