With beauty and poise, she asserts her strides.
Refined through the battles of life, she remains tough.
Amidst the manacles, she flourishes;
A defiant of the norm-racism.
Like a lioness, she safeguards her own,
Ever ready to disarm intruders.
Yet, with the heart of a dove, she douses the toughest of all.

In the goodness of her colour, she dispenses black beauty for all to feel and savour.
Basking in her African heritage, her honeycomb skin drips vitality.
Rupture her and you'll be a causality.
She is a statue of excellence, a display of God's creativity,
A projection of Africa's brilliance!

Indeed, she's golden,
Africa's best!
A masterpiece to the world.
I'm BLACK!
What are you?
