AFRICAN GODDESS

She hoped and prayed 

She believed they will return back

Come cuddle back in her bosom

Calling her hug home

She prayed relentlessly 

Holding tight to her belief

Knowing full well it takes time and dedication

For prayers to attain divine gratification

A one true goddess

Sacrificing everything just for a child

Working tirelessly to set a course right

To illuminate her child's path

The only dark skinned angel I know

Who even at wrinkled stage, skin still aligned in beauty

A one true living legend

Posterity will bear witness 

Mother of all mothers

An African queen absolutely irreplaceable

Your prayers and supplications are the best gift ever

Your passage gave me flesh

Time and tides will sail back your child

You will reap your prayers and sleepless nights

Smiles will return back to the corner of your lips

Your grandchildren will brush your golden hair
