TAKING CHALLENGE 10

**********************************************
THE DOCTOR IS IN
(A Poem for Maya Angelou)


without knowing you
taught me the
meaning of love and
understanding of myself
in all things
to no longer be
afraid to lift my
voice and  rise
above the friction                      
of life relegated
to the 2nd class
citizenship lane of
life sentenced to
the iron bars of
a caged-in soul
which now sings
praises to you daily
for healing me for
making me well
enough to lift
my voice
to sing
to rise
