iman carter, the poet

"... and there are mornings much like today
where I wake just a little too early  -
bestowing upon me the task
of having to capture all that gorgeous
in a few groggy glances over pillowcases
of catching the sands
between our bed and our motherland
as they glisten on her skin -
with a little help from GODs glow
AH! what a wonderous task of loving a Queen!.."
