The Lioness of Judah ~ (For Sandra)
“I thought you were Surinamese”
Somebody commented
Upon seeing the tattoo
Of a lion on her shoulder
“That’s the Lion of Judah
And I am what I am” she responded
“But I also expect to see a Suri tattoo
Since you are of mixed blood”
The commenter insisted
“I don’t do expectations” she firmly declared
That’s exactly how I envision her
A lioness, strong and independent
Watching her cubs, standing her ground
