BLACK MADONNA(S)

CATEGORY

     BLACK MADONNA(S)…

They have labored

In blood and pain:

 

     Birth.

 

They have labored

In sun and rain;

Their tears have watered

Sunken graves:

 

     Death.

 

They are the Ebony loins

From which we sprung:

 

     Old

     And

     Young.

 

They are the guardians

Of our faith;

Surviving for our sake.

 

Without them---Precious Lord

Where would we be?

Jesus!  I thank God for the Black Mothers

Who at times---also had to Father me.
