Dear Curls
Dear Curls,
Hang down low
Kinky and loose
Tight and bouncy
My dear curls
Dear Curls,
Fall past my ears
Or stay perched on top of my head
Do not be judged for
Volume, intensity, or mass
Be appreciated for
Your depth, beauty, and uniqueness
My dear curls
Dear Girls,
Ones goldenkissed by the sun
To those with the complexion of deep chocolate
From the milky pale canvases
To those of a roasted peanut hue
Let your curls fall down
Do not let others judge you
For the lush of your hair
Or the bounce of your curls
Unique girls
Dear Girls,
Let your kindness shine
Show your brightest smile
Embrace the locks, tresses, coils, and manes
Your ebony ringlets or golden waves
If it falls down your waist
Or barely graces your face
Your curls, your hair, do not define the beautiful woman that is you
Exude your inner beauty and be the best you
You wonderful girl
