Women’s History Month – Maya Angelou and Phenomenal Woman

Throughout the month of March, people all over the United States celebrate Women’s History Month. Everyone at Janeane’s World is joining the celebration. To kick things off I am sharing one of my favorite poems – “Phenomenal Woman” by Maya Angelou. This poem is something that all women should have in their pockets. It is important to keep a copy of this poem around  to read to yourself, to pump yourself up when you are having a bad day, a hard day or feel not good enough. It is important to remember that you are as Ms. Angelou states, “a woman, phenomenally, phenomenal woman.”

Read the poem to yourself. Then read it while looking at yourself in the mirror. Feel the words roll around your mouth and slip through your teeth. Remember always that you are a phenomenal woman. Celebrate that. Thank God for that. Enjoy that. Never let anyone downplay the phenomenal woman that is you!

Here is my interpretation of the poem. Record one of your own and share it with me at janeanedavis@janeanesworld.com .
