Maya Angelou

Mind full of wisdom, strength, hope and encouragement Always gave inspirational talks and speeches Yielding a transformed generation And we shall forever treasure her contribution A poet, actress, author, dancer, and singer Never gave up on her dreams and ambitions Getting through with her desire and aspire Eternity In heaven Like all others who left a mark on this earth Oh God grant her Ultimately for a life well lived

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
