A TRIBUTE TO MAYA ANGELOU
By Charles Robert Lindholm
Her Words Danced
Off The Page
And Made My
Heart Sing
As They Whispered
To My Soul
And Invited Me
To Come And Dance
With Her Words
And Her Wild
And Wonderful
Spirit
How Could I
Ever Refuse
That Temptation??
And As Her Words
Danced In My Head
I Fell In Love
With Her Soul

So happy you enjoyed this! This was one of those sweet times when the words almost wrote themselves.
I always love those times! They seem to produce the poems I love the best! (shhh, don’t let my other poems read that!) LOL!
