The Strong B.B.W.
Her skin....
The smell of jasmine in the brisk sun
as her body perspires in the warm sunlight
Her Hair....
Strength. Long medium brown soft lucious
like the color of a licoris stick
the smell of olives and the faint smell of honey
as she washes the shampoo from it
Her Lips....
Full the sweet the taste of peppermint
soft like the morning breeze
lucious as a ray of sun
from the light red lip gloss she wears
Pride....
She lives for it
The strong broad walk
Her head held up high to the sky
The presence of her step
The firmness of her back as she moves
The Look of power as she strides
The feirceness in her arms
THE STRONG BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMAN
