Ode To Aretha Franklin

Respect  
A word which defines a woman’s creed at best    
Separating our femininity from the rest    
The bearer, the fruit carrier    
The forgiver, the nine months deliverer    
The stress reliever      
The spiritual trinity believer    
No matter if our skirts are too short too high    
A wounded Dove still flies when her heart cries    
Strong minded    
For the women who have lost their way, the tides will ultimately bind    
     
You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman    
With whip cream on top for the licky licky under my sexual command    
Hearts soaring, weakening rapture refuses to stop    
If I close my eyes and reach out my hand    
Will you close yours and take my body to a faraway land    
Could you, would you, whisper sweet sentiments in my ear    
Only my blind heart, my open mind can hear    
     
Love All The Hurt Away    
Comfort me through all this madness as we mental play    
Your sword upheld when vultures fly and swoop my way    
Blending our bodies, loving me so gently from head to toe    
God, it feels so good as we’re mending our beautiful souls    
Passion ascending higher and higher the desires of Heaven our climatic goal    
     
I Knew You Were Waiting For Me    
Soft words bringing me to my knees    
Your precocious heart, you gave me to please      
I love it when our captive emotions naturally flees    
You always allow my inner Chi to be    
Mental energy in me you gloriously set free    
     
A Change Gonna Come    
Ordained union from above past the infinity of the sun      
How do you resist love when it's already been won    
Queen of Soul honeyed dipped in peace    
Love notes of eternity will continue on as you can see    
You have left a void no other can ever fill    
No one will ever fit the bill    
May you pass on your sultry gift of your truncheon poetic lyrics as I continue to let love instill    
Undulated as the flow of my bearer, universal love always distilled    
     
Aretha Franklin, Queen Of Soul    
RIP

My ultimate film role would be to play the queen of soul, Aretha Franklin.
