Oprah Winfrey

Oprah, in the prime of your T.V shows, I watched daily, you made me glow. Your belief in people, touched me, Which kept me lingering, in front of the tv. You gave people hope That had none, To me you shone Like the sun. You always said Believe in yourself, Put yourself first, At a time in my life I felt, I was cursed. Now, later in life, I hear your words Following my passion Of writing words. Your positive influence Stayed with me, I’m glad it did, As my heart, is filled with glee. So, thank you For what you did, You got through To this kid. Although a kid, no more My writing, I will explore.
