Calla Lilies

Tags

afro bloomin', calla lily, hopeless romantic, invocations, no bed of roses, red lemons, wcw

lovely as a calla lily…
magnificent and beautiful,
sophisticated and powerful;
she bloomed mystically.

sweeter than a red lemon…
radiant as a yellow calla lily,
iconic as an afro bloomin’, sisterlocks, or 9-ether versatility;
the black woman blooms a little brighter than most women.

We’ll always have spring…

There’s a calmness.

The pitter-patter of rain.

The puddles play jazz.

Like cherry blossoms…

we exist for a short while;

thrive in the moment.

Insects, birds, and trees.

The sun is out, it’s nice out.

I can feel a breeze.
