My Black Ebony Queen

She is a true Black Ebony Queen,
A beautiful black woman that few have seen.
Her beauty is not from her looks, but what she possess on the inside,
And she lets God and wisdom be her guide.

Her style and grace is very rare,
When she walks in the room, everyone can’t help but to stare.
She had dignity and honor in the way she walks,
And she most definitely has a humbleness and boldness when she talks.

She carries herself in a very respectable way,
So that no one will have a bad thing to say.
She has what Willie Clayton called a “Unconditional love”,
And you only get that from one place the heavens above.

She is a true Black Ebony Queen,
A beautiful black sister that few have seen.

She’s not prideful or vain,
She should be placed in the True Black woman hall of fame.
Some may call her stuck up and weak,
Because she is quite and very meek.

You have to push her in a corner for her to really speak out,
And she’s one sister that will let you know what realness is all about.
In order to be her soul mate,
It will take a true Black king to step up to her plate.

She’s a true Black Ebony Queen,
A beautiful black sister that has hopes and dreams.
She may be tall or short and she could be thick or thin,
But this Black Queen will always be rated as a #10.

A true Black Ebony Queen,
Today is rarely ever seen.
