She has closed
Forgotten all about us
I sit on the stoop
I crave a cry
She is too busy
Not to notice us
I persist till
Her soft melodic voice carries
“Hello Major”
I smile in wonder

Gaze. Into the (un)known
Pearly teeth cast unseen shadows
A sweet black neck becomes a pedestal
For a face sculpted by the Creator
I would give all to see all
Yet, I love what I see
An Afro Ghanaian beauty
