Shades of beauty in Brown

To a dark girl

I love you for your brownness

And the rounded darkness of your breast

I love you for the breaking sadness in your voice

And shadows where your wayward eye-lids rest.

Something of old forgotten queens

Lurks in the lithe abandon of your walk

And something of the shackled slave

Sobs in the rhythm of your talk

Oh, little brown girl, born for sorrow’s mate

Keep all you have of queenliness

Forgetting that you were once were slave

And let your full lips laugh at Fate!

Toronto,Canada Beautiful Black Ebony Queen

She is a true Black Ebony Queen,

A beautiful black woman that few have seen.

Her beauty is not from her looks, but what she possess on the inside,

And she lets God and wisdom be her guide.

Her style and grace is very rare,

When she walks in the room, everyone can’t help but to stare.

She had dignity and honor in the way she walks,

And she most definitely has a humbleness and boldness when she talks.

She carries herself in a very respectable way,

So that no one will have a bad thing to say.

She has what Willie Clayton called a “Unconditional love”,

And you only get that from one place the heavens above.

She is a true Black Ebony Queen,

A beautiful black sister that few have seen.

Dear black queen,

Most people write you off when they see you.

They do not know your story.

They say you are just an African.

They judge you before they get to know you.

What they do not know is

The pride you have in the blood that runs through your veins;

The pride you have in your rich culture and the history of your people;

The pride you have in your strong family ties and the deep connection to your community;

The pride you have in the African music, African art, and African dance;

The pride you have in your name and the meaning behind it.

Just as your name has meaning, you too will live your life with meaning.

So they think you are nothing?

Don’t worry about what you are now,

For what you will be, you are gradually becoming.

You will raise your head high wherever you go

Because of your African pride,
