An Attribute of Dr Maya Angelou

A seed is to produce whether it brings forth fruit or the truth.
In life, there is a light that incites and provides insight.
Justice is taught through philosophical thoughts and the thinking of scholars.
Through her aura and her authoritative enunciation, these lexes are phrases 
     that parrot the life of a crusader.
The Lord loves Maya Angelou and her life transgression shows that wealth.
Maya stepped.

The core of her existence is a brick and mortar.
The purple clouds express an elaborated life.
She was animated to her focus.
Her advocacy was for what was right.
In a political arena, she erected and endured.
Prolifically versed she prevailed.
Such power asserted withstood opine of another.
Maya's treads were written to empower.

Oration I heard from heights of trouble.
Declared just a walk with the Lord, Maya’s voice would sing from the spirit 
     of the *****.
Discourse she would have.
She would seek the body and mind the soul and spirit of woman and of man 
     though her poetic dance.
Dr. Maya Angelou stepped and her life proves that.

Adieu...
