Poem to the African Woman 📝

She is the real queen👑
The apple on the eyes of a king
She is like a beautiful flower
That brings joy every morning
She is loyal every single hour
This keeps my desire burning
She is a woman of prime
The treasure that's so priceless
She is the best of the time
The reason am always timeless
She is the true African Woman
The one that happy's her man
She is so fruitful every season
So to let her down, I'd no reason

She is the real queen👑
The apple on the eyes of a king
My promise is to love her forever
To treat her kindly as a queen
She sings to tell me am her king
So I'd love her forever and ever
She is the light in my dark room
The love of my unbeatable life
She is the only I can make my wife
Because she is really and truly a groom
She is my number one African Woman
The woman of faith and blessings
She is my humble dream woman
The one am loving and never missing
With her, the feeling is so passionate
She is kind and so affectionate

She is the real queen👑
The apple on the eyes of a king
The African Woman is a queen
The desire of every African King
She is a symbol of true passion
The emblem of a love so refreshing
The African Woman is a blessing
The epitome of tender compassion
She is the champion of all mothers
The best kind of a sister and an aunt y
She is the caretaker of the county
The one that supports the fathers
The African Woman deserves honor
She is the keeper of the home
Her beauty reflects in her everything
From her food down to her child care

AFRICAN POEM 📝

I Am An African

I am an African
Not because I was born there
But because my heart beats with Africa’s
I am an African
Not because my skin is black
But because my mind is engaged by Africa
I am an African
Not because I live on its soil
But because my soul is at home in Africa

When Africa weeps for her children
My cheeks are stained with tears
When Africa honours her elders
My head is bowed in respect
When Africa mourns for her victims
My hands are joined in prayer
When Africa celebrates her triumphs
My feet are alive with dancing

I am an African
For her blue skies take my breath away
And my hope for the future is bright
I am an African
For her people greet me as family
And teach me the meaning of community
I am an African
For her wildness quenches my spirit
And brings me closer to the source of life

When the music of Africa beats in the wind
My blood pulses to its rhythm
And I become the essence of sound
When the colours of Africa dazzle in the sun
My senses drink in its rainbow
And I become the palette of nature
When the stories of Africa echo round the fire
My feet walk in its pathways
And I become the footprints of history

I am an African
Because she is the cradle of our birth
And nurtures an ancient wisdom
I am an African
Because she lives in the world’s shadow
And bursts with a radiant luminosity
I am an African
Because she is the land of tomorrow

Kandake from Nuba of Ancient Egypt. Kandake, kadake or kentake, often Latinised as Candace, was the Meroitic term for the sister of the king of Kush who, due to the matrilineal succession, would bear the next heir, making her a queen mother. She had her own court, probably acted as a landholder and held a prominent secular role as regent.
