An Exclusive Collection of Poetic Verses from ROSETTA STONE
My Sista, I admire you
With pure envy, your love of life
The salutation you bring to every day
Every moment around you is a Celebration
You ring out the sadness out of everyone
Filling everyone’s seconds with gladness
The world looks at you; your face is the sun
Your eyes the stars; your whole being
Your golden setting shines like the silver moon
My Sista, by the talents of your hands
The cold and naked are clothed
The hungry and the thirsty ones are fed
Your tranquil breath with embracing words
Are like springs of water to their perishing souls
Rising ahead of the dawn, the atmosphere you create
For your husband and children is to their delight
Woken by the merriment of your singing
They arise to a table made ready, fit for a King
My Sista, you look at the world
With all its pollution, dread and decay
You picture it not for what it is but
For what we can make it and together as
We see with your eyes, what beauty
We behold, seeing for the first time
The World as The Most High intended
The human heart as it aught to be
Respecting and accepting every human’s right
Whether they be man, woman or child
My Sista, the importance of each moment
You bring to mind is so Divine
Framed for its own preciousness
And is a step by step journey
We see all the things you celebrate
The Almighty’s creation arrayed and teeming
With plants, flowers and trees and land and
Seas filled with the offspring from Noah’s Ark
My Sista, you know that we are only here
For a time and that the world is given to us to enjoy
You know the secret that each one of those minutes
Eternity brings and when we accept them as such
We, like you can enjoy for that minuscule
Eternity will never come again
