In and Out of Time by Maya Angelou

The other night I was watching Madea's Family Reunion...I always enjoy Tyler Perry's movies, the messages are always so powerful...which reminds me...

Note to self:
Teach Isis how to play Grit Ball.


My absolutely favorite part was Maya Angelou reciting her poem
"In and Out of Time"
I found the words and wanted to publish it on my blog.


Hope you enjoy it as much as I do everytime i hear her read it.
Whew...thats love!


The sun has come.
The mist has gone.
We see in the distance...our long way home.
I was always yours to have.
You were always mine.
We have loved each other in and out of time.
When the first stone looked up at the blazing sunand the first tree struggled up from the forest floor
I had always loved you more.
You freed your braids...gave your hair to the breeze.
It hummed like a hive of honey bees.
I reached in the mass for the sweet honey comb there....Mmmm...
God how I love your hair.You saw me bludgeoned by circumstance.
Lost, injured, hurt by chance.
I screamed to the heavens....loudly screamed....
Trying to change our nightmares to dreams...
The sun has come.
The mist has gone.
We see in the distance our long way home.
I was always yours to have.
You were always mine.
We have loved each other in and outin and outin and outof time.

About Me

My photo
I'm a writer that writes from the heart...and emotion (ergo, the name of my blog). Most of what I write about, I have had first hand experience in. Anything I review does not say I am an expert...I only write what I THINK and whether I like it or not! Not how the rest of the world should think or feel. I am Mexican/Italian and a Leo..again..why my blog is called the World of Emotion!! Hope you enjoy what I have to say and/or review. Enjoy!
