POSITIVE IMAGE

 

I rise from sleep I see a reflection, I see a black face looking at me

 I smile for I have another day to achieve.

The daily struggles that are up against me, determines me to claim I am free

As I prepare myself I give thanks first of all.

 To the Supreme who is my first port of call.

I plan with divine intervention, for I know the world is not kind,

 Many may try to stop me in my tracks.

 But I know the Black face I see in the mirror encourages me for I smile

I look at the space around me, no one can step in.

 I do not invite you unless you are positive in your daily living.

I cannot afford to be contaminated with any false embrace.

 For your negative energy will try to move in and circulate within

 and evade my personal space.

I leave my home to face, what I know is not a threat to my black skin.

For I have been given freedom from the Supreme which cannot be denied

 For I am at ease, I know there are many that think like me.

For they are hunters, who have found there true destiny.

They will not allow any prey to stand in their way.

I greet all with love and humility for this determines me victory.

As the day draws to a close, I thank the Supreme for progress and none success.

 For Creativity should always be sustained, to gain what is but only round the comer.

As I lay down to sleep I look at my black face, once again.

 For there is a positive future,

 

for this black face;

As  I have earned it through Thanks and Gratitude .

No one can erase for I am destined and sealed.

For the Supreme has bestowed upon me its strength.

Which is my standpoint.

 For my awareness gives me courage.

For no odds are against me;

 I will never dilute to suit,

For I am what I am, and who I will be

Is determined through the talents,

bestowed upon me.
