soulfully penetrating ( a poem commending the black woman)

Darkness is illuminated by the plainness of your smile
And when searching to find myself…I only further discover you

You have become my reflection…mirrored in exact perception, and vividly clear
You have become the blessing of a lonely prayer…and I thank God I inclined my ear

You are properly raised…which,
Places the value of your mother highly appraised
Because the marvel of your glow…recites the courage of a royal story told
And that penetrates my soul
Fore you are soulfully penetrating
