Dr. Maya Angelou

(April 4, 1928 -- May 28, 2014)

                                         

Those who met Maya Angelou will never forget the moment. . .

Dressed in flowing bright colors, she walks across the stage
and  lights a candle. Suddenly there is celebration in the air of
the auditorium at UCLA.
In that deep, caring voice she says, 

"Poetry is like a file sent in a cake
while you are in prison to set you free."
