Phenomenal Woman

screams and tears on a starry night
a child is born, a woman of light
celebration for she is a blessing 
given to the world to teach a lesson
innocent and pure she is 
obedience and love she breathes
loved by the almighty himself 
from her predecessors the savior himself
Some seek to cast her down 
others seek to tear her gown 
A garment of pride and confidence
They aim to make her like her precedents 
immortal she is not 
Sometimes life gets hot 
invisibility is not hers 
Silence in lots of jars 
She sees the time to be seen 
and hears the time to be heard 
She will not walk by you 
without a second glance like the color blue
Her confidence is contagious 
It makes some others delirious
She wakes up in the morning 
and the devil is mourning  
angry at her rise 
righteousness, forever in her life 
till the day she dies 
and leaves this world of lies 
seen she shall be 
heard she shall be 
her life a lesson 
Her existence a blessing 
phenomenal woman
