Dr. Maya Angelou, This Poem Is For You And Oprah Poem by Hebert Logerie

Maya and Oprah, you are two phenomenal women!
Ave Maria! You are in reality two Super Women!
Yes, I love you; a zillion other people do too,
And in unison, we all want to honor both of you.

The world is constantly changing, turning and moving.
Honesty and good humor are very important to our lives,
Intelligence and decency can easily defeat evil and lies,
Seasons come and go like summer, fall, winter and spring.

Pride will always be a precious commodity.
Our little boats are more than half full of wisdom.
Every time, I hear the bird singing on the tree,
My whole body shivers, and I fall in ecstasy.

I have tried to imitate the humming bird,
So I could enchant you like a romantic nerd.

Fear and hesitation prevented me from
Ordering gifts which you probably do not need;
Really, in lieu of sending flowers, I wrote a poem.

Yes, I dedicated this poem to you, who know how to lead,
Organize important events, charm, help the poor,
Unite, appreciate, and love all people regardless of race,

And even assist a special Man, a great Orator,
Not only winning once but twice the highest office;
Daring the perennial doubters that anything is possible,

On the land of Abraham Lincoln, because He is
Persistent and focused on prosperity and peace,
Reasonable and conscientious in his work ethics, and
Adamant to defeat the odds stocking in
Hell. Enfin, Happy belated Birthdays!
