African Queen


The milk chocolate delicacy of my skin

Let my natrual black beauty flaunt in the wind

Beautiful african queen

The strong ties of a woman

Growing slim body of a Goddess

Vigorous african queen

Embodied with knowledge

Honesty

And power

Prodigious african queen

Flawless you are

In the depths of space

you're like a dying star

<p>I find it interesting how you compare the queen to a "dying star". I also liek the line, "Embodied with knowledge" and given stars in space and their age, it's a very peculiar way to show her age and knowledge and how you compare her power to the sun, which can help life form- it's just simply amazing. Love this poem!!</p>
