Diamonds and Pearls
Diamonds & Pearls
my sisters are fifty shades of Black
dark & lovely
the epitome of black beauty
chocolate goddess
that's envied by many.
Daughter of nature,
but mother to the world,
Mother earth who kiss
is the kiss of life & love.
Hot & sweet temperature of the love
we make when meet.
A beautiful full Moon
unrefined w/ depths that's unparalleled,
mysterious eyes --color of love.
Peaceful is her aura beauty
is her nature, soul on fire
w/ an inextinguishable flame.
Blessed the worldwide w/ her presence present
since the beginning one of the two
essential ingredients for life:
Nubian princesses, Ethiopian Queens,
Ghana Goddesses all reign supreme
sister of thunder & mother to lightning
the fingers of the hand that created life.
Rich w/ compassion, kindness, love
happiness & joy. A beautiful
mahogany rose blooming a sweet
symphony. Diamonds & Pearls
flawed or scratched your value diminishes
Diamonds & Pearls
flaws & scratches illuminates
my sisters beauty & they're being
done a great injustice being compared
to Diamonds & Pearls.
