Started from the gutta now I’m here

Flowing these fresh lines making you grin from ear to ear

Giving ya mind wet dreams wit my ink

Got ya going in circles trying to think

Started from the gutta now I’m here

Taking you to the school of Sunshine BlackRose

Better than any 4 year college, this fact no one can appose

Demanding me to climb higher, excel to the next level

My word verbiage is so deadly, burial time… you need to get that shovel

See I started from the gutta now I’m here

Worked hard to step up my game

Now this Queen, Sunshine BlackRose is ready for fame

Featured Poet & Author: Aliscia Melton (Sunshine Blackrose)

Aliscia began writing as a youth by journaling and creating 

stories. It was a way for her to deal with her emotions and

turbulent upbringing. She later picked writing back up when 

she became involved with the Youth Ministry at church. She

would write short plays, speeches, and poems for the children to recite.

In 2012, Aliscia was re-introduced to poetry through friends

and some personal struggles in her life. During this time she 
found solace in writing and her horizon was broadened
as she saw her life story being written out in poetic form, 
which she refers to as her “mind spillage”. 

This caused her to share her work with others online and to eventually create a 
group through FaceBook where all could come and freely express themselves in poetic form
(Poetic Freedom Café).https://www.facebook.com/groups/Poeticfreedomcafe/

Aliscia has been featured on "The Literary Corner" a blog radio show where she shared her art of poetry and on Eloquently Speaking, an online magazine 

http://eloquentlyspeaking.homestead.com/aliscia.html

She has also been featured as Poet of the month in Eloquently Speaking, a poetry group on Facebook and featured online at
http://www.blacktopia.org/2015/05/books-sunshine-blackrose-from.html

Aliscia has been featured on The Top 15 of the Month on the website http://www.ellemclin.com. A shared Format 4 Poets, over 8 times for several of her poetry pieces, sometime making the list multiple times in one month for different pieces. Aliscia Melton is not only a poet, but an entrepreneur, mentor and community activist.
