Chocolate

Chocolate 
 
Smooth, that’s what I am Smooth like silk 
Chocolate layers of sweetness engulf my soul 
Creamy, dreamy double layers of chocolate
The desired possession, but can’t you see, 
I am preserved by God, His Specialty 
I am the chocolate Sister
This is how God made me
 
From the top of my head Down to my feet 
I am covered in layers of brownness, 
like a chocolate sea
 
God got excited about his handiwork and decided indeed, 
To add a touch of color
He chose the earth shade color of brown. 
And he knew that He had created a MASTERPIECE
 
I arise every morning to a world of color
I behold the beauty of God’s creativity staring at me
As I rediscover my finely crafted face
A tapestry of color
 
I am a beautiful creation of the Most High
I am his handiwork
I am God’s masterpiece
 
Beautifully designed
Superbly adorned
Delicately detailed
Divinely covered in chocolate  
I have God’s favor 
I am God’s work of art. 
I am a woman of color
Sweet and pristine 
Just like Chocolate
