RE: Celebrating Maya Angelou's 90th Birthday (Poetry & Inspiring Quotes)

in #poetry6 years ago

Wish you a very very happy birthday The Great Poet and Philosopher of the century —Maya Angelou :)

You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.

Yes, We all wise rise ....

Thank you so much @yahialababidi for giving her a brilliant tribute on her 90th birthday :)

Here's more of her poetry:

Now if you listen closely
I’ll tell you what I know
Storm clouds are gathering
The wind is gonna blow
The race of man is suffering
And I can hear the moan,
‘Cause nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.

—Maya Angelou
