Only a Brother CanNobody can reward a strong, patient sistah like her man can.
Only a Brother can…
…walk that proud bounce on his toes strut as if he’s about to leap into the heavens (or is he already walking there?)
Only a Brother can…
…wink & smile that smile only for you that no one else noticed
but you suddenly feel as if he gently grazed his fingertips all over you body and you’re tingling & smiling all over yourself as if you were caught in a surprise Spring rain shower and it’s …. S-uh-oo refreshing.
Only a Brother can…
…enter a room and suddenly transform the décor AND the lighting.
Only a Brother can…
…pluck you from a crowd like a flower simply by locking his beautifully intense eyes onto yours.
Only a Brother can…
…touch you without touching you with his powerful presence.
….breathe his warm chocolate breath down your neck & cause you to melt into a completely relaxed state.
…touch you feather lightly with those wonderfully strong hands from your toes to your nose & deeply into your soul.
….explore your mind, body AND soul ever so carefully and gently as if putting together an intricately fragile puzzle.
…awaken you from a DEEP love-he-induced slumber with strokes so pleasing you smile and murmur, “Good mornin’
…it must be mornin’ cuz I feel like singin’ Halleluyah!!”

touch you without touching you with his powerful presence.
It's a beautiful thang whenever a black woman shares her feelings of genuine love for a black man.
