Maya Angelou's poetry is always inspiring. This collection of her poetry has classics that celebrate women, including one of my favorites - "Phenomenal Woman" - as well as "Still I Rise," "Weekend Glory," and "Our Grandmothers." The words in these poems can inspire any woman, regardless of race or age. A great gift idea!"Now you understand
Just why my head’s not bowed.
I don’t shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing,
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It’s in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
The palm of my hand,
The need of my care.
'Cause I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me."
