This poem is very strong in emotion it tells so much in just a little bit
of words. Maya Angelou is my inspiration to life, she allows to see things
from all prospect. I love you Maya keep up the good work.

inspired by her.

This poem is touching even though it is short. I think about love and many
other metaphors that the poem could be talking about. Maya Angelou is a
deep poet. She makes you read her poems several times getting a different
meaning each time.
