I am my mother's daughter

i am an African woman.
i am blessed with curves.
my thighs and legs are thick.
my bottom is rounded.
my hair is coarse and kinky.
my skin is dark
i am not a size zero; my hips won't let me be.
i don't look like most of the girls in magazines or on the runway.
But i am a model and i am beautiful, just as my mother, Africa.
i am my mother's daughter.
