If words had to be the only way that beauty
could be described,
then we could never define it.
But if beauty could be described by people
then you my black sistah
would be the most beautiful thing in the world.
Your hair strong and tough like your character.
Your brown skin which captures the richness
and smoothness of the finest chocolate.
Your eyes that are so deep and dark
anyone could get lost in them.
Your wide hips that spread to bare
the movers and shakers of this world.
Your lips soft and wide,
spreading to chase away
all my doubts and despairs.
The touch of your hair gives strength to my soul.
The sight of your skin makes one tingle.
The spread of your hips
gives me confidence to become.
The sight of your lips
makes me realize that you are perfect.
You oh black woman are beautiful and perfect.
You are strong, fine, confident and beautiful.
You are beauty my sistah,
You are beauty, you are beauty.
YOU ARE THE EPITOME OF BEAUTY.
