Angel Of Thunder Poem by Christa D

Angel Of Thunder



Your voice is a sword
Shoved in the heart of injustice.
Your hair, as stubborn as you,
Vowed a cult to Mother Africa.

Your eyes of burning stars
Give a glimpse
Of the imperial confidence
That illuminates your soul.

A fist raised to the sky,
And you shattered authorities
Galvanized the crowd
And fed boys and girls with hope.

Your bipolar heart,
As tough and tender
Is a treasure of power and love
And a host for the oppressed.

You are
An eternal fighter,
A stream of inspiration,
An angel of thunder.
