YOUNG BROWN GIRL
Dear young brown girl
Brown skin, kissed from the sun
Brown eyes made from specks of gold
Tight-coiled curls shaped like a wand
From the roots of Africa
To the land of the “claimed” free
You are beautiful,
Young brown girl
You are beautiful despite what society thinks
Do not hate your face
Learn to embrace
Moreover, handle with grace
Sincerely, a young brown girl
