This is one of my favorite poems in ths words, I know all the words to it.
I love it so much and the metaphor really made so much sense. The stairs
idea really made the poetry make sense.

I was given this poem by my "sun" which "sings out loud" to me that he has
been inspired by MY life and that he has been given strength to hold tight
and strong in his own hard times and struggles, through inspiration from
me. In that, Langston Hughes gift of poetry has traveled full circle, as
intended....a gift my son has given back to both Langston and I.

My grandfather cut this poem out of the newspaper and framed it for me when
I was between 10 and 12. In moving either when I was 14 or 17 (two
different moves) it was broken and lost. I have been looking for it since.
I did not know the authors name, just "Life ain't been no crystal stair".
Thirty years later it still tells me, keep trying, don't let your problems
get you down.

I taught this poem at several levels, and always found the responses
fascinating. Often they revealed more than I expected. The responses and
the poem were inspiring to me then, and they are now as I reread them
thirty years later. The poem shows dignity and power of will.

motivated me to keep moving

i came across this poem by accident. i am the single parent to a teenage
son and i felt it really captured the essence of our relationship. the poem
says that although my life is hard sometimes giving up and giving in is not
an option.
