Precious Black Diamond
When trials fall, she remains tough
Yes, a diamond in the rough,
Black…but shining outside her cage
For courage is youth’s heritage.
In time seasoned, one polished gem
Reigning like a glossed diadem,
And strength becomes a lasting grace
Facing doubt with holy embrace.
She knows each conquest quite well paid
When life’s jewel adorns her shade.
This woman never bought but found
A precious light, finally crowned.
