TWO PEARLS UPON THE SEA ..

CATEGORY

life

Views: 314

A pearl... black in brilliance, the earths' seed.

A pearl ... light in flawless color, breast milk of the sea.

Both of Oysters wombs ... Placed upon life's destiny as a crystal is placed upon a light,

different colors shall arise, for these are our sisters .....Born of one seed.

Wilma Rudolph .....Polio to Gold Medal Winner, judgment be on that power and strength everlasting, ever since.

Black Sisters,

we must stop the picking and choosing of who will be accepted into our heritage and who will not. Must Aretha be accepted because she was dually elected as Queen of Soul,

or Iman, because she was acclaimed as one of the most beautiful black woman today ...

Yet, The girl on the corner, trying to survive, has no place within our hearts,

nor Grandma, placed her in a home... .forgotten

So this sister is not as pretty as you feel she should be, She may be too fat or too skinny.....

Makes no difference to me. If she lies alone or with another, it’s no concern to me, my sister still shall she be.

Harriet Tubman.... had no time to do her hair, you think the slaves noticed or even cared, Miss Jane Pitman.... her skin was not light, not even fair,

do you think anyone noticed or even cared, Angela Davis .... Afro to Dreads,

Shirley Chisom... beautiful or not, foot stones many did she lay for others.

Sisters, Black Women, Girlfriend ......

 

Unearth these seeds of prejudice,

plant not them deeper, "I" could not see, beyond the color of this sea, and I shall not eat of this fruit again. Differences: rich, poor, young old,

beautiful or less than.... They, we are all Sisters.

 

 

Survived in Soul Together Everlasting Righteous Sisters
