Skin like butter
body like milk
Brown bosom like
Kilimanjaro
Why are you insecure?
Don't you know your epidermis
shines brighter than diamonds ?
Don't you know that your skin is worth more than pears?

Your skin glows like the sun
It drips like hot chocolate
Even Nefertiti stands in awe
Cleopatra beams in admiration
Skin like black coal
Body like fine chocolate
soft like caramel
Radiant like sweet cream
Your shade can never be bought
with a price
Even if we go far beyond
or shop at Wal-Mart.
It can never be packaged
with a price tag

Don't peel that skin girl!
Don't take off that melanin
You are a beauty to behold
One of earth's finest treasure
Keep shining Melanin girl
The world is yours.
