Poem
(In Memory of the great Poetess Maya Angelou) The day you were born, A bright star came down To illuminate many souls In America and the world! That special day, The spirit of hope and joy Was reborn through you! Soul and Body Magically combined To become a reservoir Of beauty and wisdom Through the passage of time! You always sang like a bird, Smiled like the butterflies, Constantly touching the world With your wise, inspiring And powerful words! You made every single woman To become proud of herself! You made the difference In the Poetry World By echoing through your words And magic pen, The message of Peace and Love! You absorbed our pain, Sadness, hungry and emotions While sharing unconditionally Your true and humble love with all! You became the world And the world adores you! You highlighted the real value Of women all over the globe By bringing knowledge as a goal In order to succeed, No matter the color, race or creed! You will live forever dear Through all of us For generations to come! You have become a fountain Of Beauty and Wisdom That will always inspire us! Long live your legacy! Rest In Peace dear Maya Angelou! Romeo Della Valle ©All rights reserved-2014 New York City
