God blessed the soul that gave me the courage
To write what I feel
To feel
God blessed the soul that paved a way
For people like me
For the woman who taught
That there is no one like me
God blessed the soul that opened the minds
Of more than can count
The soul that opened the eyes
Of the blind who felt
But could not see the way
To this world
This world of emotion
passion
feel
God blessed the soul that paved the way
God named her Maya Angelou
And she paved the way
