Poetry & Lyrics

We honor these compositions of African America with our eight categories of poems and lyrics. These are an unedited collection of thoughts and emotions that continue to fashion the world. Search any categories: Healing, Love, Rituals, Sonnets, Celebration of Blackness, Haiku, family, and Freedom. If you wish, select the last name of a writer from our alphabet. If you have a suggestion or submission for any category, please get in touch with us at info@aaregistry.org.
