Nubian Queen
She has skin that has flakes of gold
Her eyes have the wisdom from her ancestors of old
Her wide brimmed nose and perfected slopes and curves
Has the strength of 10 elephants, though seldom heard
Her cheekbones are like clouds to a small boys thrill
And when smoothed can shoot arrows like the hunter before the kill
Her eyes shine like the diamonds of South Africa, with a light from deep within
In each strand of her hair reflects a different angle, like the piercing love of a friend
Each step she takes is as smooth as a butterfly; carefully she takes one at a time
In her hips is an unconscious rhythmic move to every man?s divine
Her arms sway like the wind underneath the wings of any bird
The knowledge she holds on the tongue of her mouth can only be mysteriously heard
Daily she prays to her creator and receives daily strength
In the consistent learning cycle, for her intelligence is to the degree of the 10th
From her head to her feet this sista is complete
Whether she?s tending to her young or watching the setting of the sun
A new being, her essence scene by the naked eye so it seems
A mother of many mysteries, a Nubian Queen

And Another ONE.....

Each one that comes around whether he's from up or downtown, I often wonder is this the one?
They stagger in my life, like a whisper in the night, and he's so fine and handsome, what's gone be the amount of his ransom, for taking my time, heart, and care, now you tell me does that really sound fair?

Yes their nice at first until their bubble is burst as the reality comes clear that I could never be near,
the type of woman their looking for, I simply ask myself do I look like a %#&@$!?

They acknowledge my existence, but I'll still be persistent
in asking my daily question just for fun, is this the one?
