Face of Delta
what an epitome and a paragon of beauty
whose beauty famed the widest animal
A complete African
Typically Nigerian
With big heart of Delta state
An Ideal Isoko woman
With dark eyes like that of the African forest
And a fresh ebony complexion
Beautiful oval face like an egg
Slim as her melodious voice
Which can only be compared to that a nightingale's
Her dark tresses explains why she is the queen of ceremonies
Caring hands like ointments
Her wonderfully made banga soup and starch
reminds me of home
She's charming and adorable
so admiring,No Wonder!
The exotic bloom in her cheek
can only be compared to that of an orchid
A lily among ladies
An ornament of purple hibiscus
A sweet coconut juice she's to her counterpart
With the strength and hope the exhibit true African mind
Extremely wise,pure and affable
Never a carnality or a coquette
Nationally conscious
A model of what a woman she be
I'm lost in the thought over this gift from an
Isoko womb
The face of Delta.
