The ‘No mystery to Black History’ continues…(see #nomysterytoblackhistory on Twitter @jwnelson3.com)
WHO ARE WE? (my personal memories)

We could be the man at the very top
We could be the man with the quiet Karma
Reaching a summit some thought impossible
Achieved by none other than Barrack Obama

We could be the global female lead
We could be the host, inspirator, a champion for all to hear and see
We should focus on ‘Key, Significance and small victories’
We could also follow our very own Oprah Winfrey

We could focus on winning our race – Daley?
Could we win ten challenging events – all at one time?
We could achieve the highest accolades of GOLD
Thompson’s record is purely and simply sublime

We could be the ‘black beauty’ : out of this world
Nichelle caused a stir with ‘that first kiss’
We now thankfully live in changed times
It is something thankfully we do not miss
We could be the ‘Thunderball’ 8 – yes that’s black
Earl started something that others did discern
A man of longevity – yes his life covered a century
Another inspiring target for us all; from which to learn

We could be the voice of our nations
Powerful, moving, seducing and hot like a burner
Songs and melodies from the past into the future
Yes, we could all do with a bit of ‘The’ Tina Turner
We could be funny, colourful, bold and a first?
Sweet sixteen in the 70’s made many choose Lenny
We could produce magic amid a torrid racial backdrop
In an era where up the Hill; there was another funny man called Benny..
We could be in the news
We could be the first colour on your screen
We could follow Trevor’s poise, professionalism and attitude
We love to having him on our Team…

We are everyone, everything, just like you
We have beautiful, hair, colour, skin and eyes
We are proud, clever, funny with intelligence
We are here, we are all together, let’s all keep aiming for that prize…
