Masai

Proud daughters with an ancient regal look; 
Each undulating move is like a kiss. 
They open up their beauty like a book - 
In righteous, rhythmic, syncopated bliss. 

Erotic ebony gives sinful shine 
To skin that glistens bright the night unique. 
Obsidian, delightful cherry wine; 
From transubstantiated Mozambique. 

Her stride is like the river as it flows; 
She moves with prideful beauty - statuesque. 
Oh lady Africa your passion glows 
With lust imbued by rippled arabesque. 

So sleek and wet her silouette goes by 
A royal beauty born of great Masai.
