In a moment of time Your words birthed A vision inside of me To be human Yes it's quite strange.. But in our uniqueness We realise That we are all the same The phrase I love you Has a transitory tone It can either end or begin A chapter The storms of life, may grey our skies But you've taught us How to see The rainbows in our clouds Poets are encouraged to remember.. Words Are Things So all though you have stopped on The train ride called life You leave us lingering passengers With the courage to complete the journey With empowerment for the destination Your smile will last As the memoir of your legacy And we will press on For today and tomorrow With the mask removed

Poem For Maya Angelou
In a moment of time Your words birthed A vision inside of me To be human Yes it's quite strange.. But in our uniqueness We realise That we are all the same The phrase I love you Has a transitory tone It can either end or begin A chapter The storms of life, may grey our skies But you've taught us How to see The rainbows in our clouds Poets are encouraged to remember.. Words Are Things So all though you have stopped on The train ride called life You leave us lingering passengers With the courage to complete the journey With empowerment for the destination Your smile will last As the memoir of your legacy And we will press on For today and tomorrow With the mask removed
We miss you Maya!
