My earth
my rich nubian earth
where the romantic congo river
splits my pleasing hills — home

This is where
love is found
was always found
My soft wide expanses

Warriors
lonely and spent
from their campaigns
were wealthy men to have me

Such is the tradition
I replenish
as I stand nude before you
a princess touching her people

A nurturing smile
painting my lips and teeth
My ancient eyes writing
their own poems

Love can be found
in my expanse
always could
long before the slavers stole us

My hills and river
were bread to my fathers
my defenders
And I fed them well

Now my tradition
turns to you
be brave
shed your fears of color
let me feed you too

Thank you!

Thanks to everyone who commented here. Your support and constructive criticism,

which I also take as support, means so much to me. This is a very special poem for me; that it has touched so many of you makes it even more so. Thank you again!

I love the title!

It is what got me to read your poem. I hope you know what a strong voice you possess. I would like to see this poem strengthened a bit, but I want you to know that your work touched my heart. You are good, never doubt that, but keep writing and growing! Nurture your voice and then go get published other than Lit! This is a good place to start :)
