everywhere and nowhere
Occupation
to seek truth
The man I love
Gave me
A black rose

Now my sister said
The nerve of him to give u
A black rose

But

I saved the black rose
It never wilted

I watched the black rose
It's pedals never fell

The black rose seemed so unnatural

My sister's man gave her
A white lotus

My sister said the nerve of him to give her
A white lotus

She threw it away

I took the white lotus
It opened and closed

I watched the white lotus
It lived and it died

I took the white lotus
and put it at my man's feet

The white lotus seemed so natural

My sister wanted neither flower
Because she couldn't understand

that the

Black Rose

was a symbol of

The eternal courage of Black Love

The white lotus speaks volumes of pure change
And is quite worthy of his feet

The white lotus perfects it self
So
In eternal black Love creation is complete
 
In the Spirit of Sankofa and Real Truth!

BLACK ROSE...Wow!

Simply beautiful Mrs. Lady,

It made me think of this:
