A Tribute To a Phenomenal Woman
THE VOICE, THE VOICE, THE VOICE of yesterday & today that once seek solace
within her bosom made way for words,
words that billowed with intent calling deep within
the strength to overcome racism and trauma!
She will war NO MORE, NO MORE , NO MORE Queen courageously
challenged the world to change & engaged in the rights of her
people, inspiring them to dream, a warrior for equality, tolerance, & peace!
Like the dinosaur in "On The Pulse Of Morning" she too left tokens
here of her sojourn on this planet, like "Ginuwine" THERE'S NO ROOM,
NO ROOM, IN THOSE JEANS, IN THOSE JEANS, IN THOSE JEANS there
will never be another her shoes are to big to fill My Sister, Mrs. Dr. Angelou.
DON'T CRY, DON'T CRY, DON'T CRY for she has transcended, gone
home to glory don't remember her with tears, in fact, let laughter
fill the air, CEEELLLLEBRATE good time her life, legacy, love, wisdom, & knowledge!
Teacher, poet, & activist her words RANG, RANG, RANG loud & clear
"Phenomenal Woman, Phenomenally was she"!
