The Colors That We Are by Maite Lauder (my sister)

Caramel colored princess
Black man's dream
Fresh picked peach
All rinsed in gleem
Homemade vanilla ice cream
with a golden hue
Rich chocolate queen
just like you
All of the same color
All African American Queens
who will soon reclaim their thrones
next to their African Kings
