WHOM TOLD YOU THIS-

Mellow golden browned skin Naked no one knew then Eyes of her Father’s Blacken hair coarse fine All at the same time Washed feet Forehead sweet Whom a told you this Strong neck Walks in royalty Statured heavenly Ebony queen All at the same time Washes her feet Bare sole never touches the streets She’s clean brown and golden Naked no one knew then Eyes of her Father She’s cleansed up to her teeth Top of her head Down to the soul of vessel She measures worth more than the universe Her feet so sweet He forehead so sweet Her hands so sweet Whom told you this 2/15/24 Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2024©
