A Tribute To Maya

A beam of light, now gone from us She sang, danced, performed, a poetess. Why do I love her a new - try following in her footsteps, but I can't. Have the talent, but not the knowledge. So what does this mean? I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings, I know not. Must read to find out. She had time for a talented life. A beam for all Generations. Great Life, sorry she's gone. But she left me a Life Time of Knowledge. A Life Time to plan and gain my life. Thank you, Maya Angelou, thank you so much.
