June 7th
It’s a “Phenomenal” Day
LORD, WE THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR CHILD OUR Sitar MAYA WITH US. MAY HER SOUL REST IN PEACE. AMEN.
First lady Michelle Obama spoke at the private memorial service for the writer and poet Maya Angelou. The time had come for us to say farewell to one of our great “She-roes” as Mrs. Obama called her at the BET Awards. As we think about her life, let us think about our own. What are you doing to make this world better? What will you be remembered for? What will be your contribution to society? As my OES SiStar Maya said, “People will forget what you say. People will forget what you do. But People will never forget how you made them feel”. Beloved make somebody happy today. In tribute to our fallen “She-roe,” I share with you, her famous poem entitled,
“Phenomenal Woman”
“Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I’m telling lies.
I say,
It’s in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honeybees.
I say,
It’s the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can’t touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can’t see.
I say,
It’s in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.
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.”
Yes, Phenomenal she was. Can the world say the same about you?
