Dr. Angelou... Thank you so much for writing this poem for Michael. The pain of losing Michael is deeper than words can express. I looked for your help and I found it. You are my idol! I love you as if I have always known you! You always touch my heart deeply! And for that I am grateful that we have you are in this world! Thank you!
Dr. Maya Angelou has always been a favorite poet of mine. She paints pictures with words and conveys strong emmotions with her cadence. Thank you Dr. Mayo Angelou for such beautiful words for a beautiful man that gave his all to his craft and to his fans.
I LOVE Dr. Maya Angelou and have named my daughter in her honor. This world is so much more beautiful because of her amazing soul. I will need many lifetimes in order to be able to thank God for the gift of her!!!!!!!!! I never loved poetry until the first time I heard her voice at Clinton's first inaugural. I have been listening to her since then and will never stop.
My favorite poet, speaking on my favorite artist/singer/entertainer. I couldn't have asked for much more than this. The poem was beautiful & touching. Brought tears to my eyes to hear it, brought tears to my eyes to watch the video. Most of the world had not realized what we had in MJ until it was too late- such a shame that he will never get to know. Much love, respect & admiration to both Maya & Michael- MJ shall forever live on in our hearts & through his works. Thank the Lord for them both.
Hearing Maya speak evokes so many emotions in me. I grew up reading her books, understanding her triumphs and defeats in life. Understanding and inkling of how compassionate she is, because she survived so much. I Thank her for honoring MJ, unlike so many others. I just, I have always loved both her and MJ and my spirit bows to theirs. That is the highest honor in my tradition i can give to another. Blessed are both...thanks so much for sharing.
That's a great poem! I didn't know much about Maya Angelou so I read some things about her. I love discovering people with such a strong sense of themselves. That kind of courage and perspective is usually hard won which makes me appreciate it even more. Thank you for your poem and for reading it for the world! Now you have my interest and I want to find your books.
Thank U LORD, for sending one of your ANGELS, to shine a little light on this dark & cold world. M.J. brought Smiles on our faces & Joy in our Hearts, because he was a GIFT FROM GOD following in JESUS footsteps trying to help & love everyone & everything, looking for nothing in return but a little Compassion. Yes we had him, but didn't realized what a precious and one of a kind Jewel he was, until to late. So GOD took him back home, I'm PROUD TO BE APART OF M.J. DOT# 250358 THANK U, MS. ANGELOU
"The space between the dots is what creates the image." And the relationships that are formed between those dots are creating global harmony. Because the tribute portrait is made up of hundreds of thousands of people around the world who are truly coming together in love and friendship.
As the dots begin to form a clearer picture of Michael, the people those dots represent come closer to fulfilling his dream.
It's a beautiful concept, and even more beautiful to see what it's becoming.
Very beautiful Mya Angelou poem about Michael we sure did have him, I will forever treasure the love he shared to the world and all his fans pure genuine love from his heart and soul thanks for sharing this beautiful clip with me hugs xoxoxo!!!
Yes, we had Him and we are blessed. Thank you Dr. Angelou. We are so touched by viewing you reciting this poem in his memory. He lives in our hearts forever. God's blessing to you.
thank you for sharing such a wonderful tribue, my dot is there over his heart for he had such a big one for the world,as well as the common man...peace and l.o.v.e. to all who placed there dots for a humble human being.
"...but we do know that we had him and we, we are the world'~Maya Angelou.............each dot represents an individual on the face of this planet that was touched in some way by Michael Jackson's talent, passion, intelligence, optimism, perserverance, and spirit. Bless you Ms. Angelou. :) Nancy

I realy liked her statement about the difference between modesty and humility. And I do think Michael demonstrated a natural humility & that is what endeared him to so many hearts. Thank you, Maya, for your reading. And thank you to the tribute portrait project for adding Maya's dot to Michael's heart.
We have you Dr. Maya Angelou, to bring us this beautiful poem. Your loving words come from your heart. It is an honour to be a dot in Michael's portrait, knowing that you are a dot close to his heart.
Thank you so much Ms. Maya Angelou. You are another gift and angel too just like our michael. thank you for sharing not only your poetry but your love for michael and for telling the whole world what a beautiful person michael was. it is just too painful until now. i will never get over it but as jermaine said, will just learn to live with it. to our baby michael, you are just so sadly missed but lovingly remembered.
Until there was Maya Angelou, until there was Michael Jackson, poetry did not necessarily inspire me. These two renowned individuals have an enormous gift of poetic waves of beautiful and spriitual knowledge in their lovely and humble souls. Thank you Maya Angelou for sharing your gift with the world and speaking out to honor our beloved Michael. Thank you thank you thank you.
Absolutely beautiful. We will always have Michael tucked away deep within our hearts. He gave us every ounce of his being and because of that "WE WILL ALWAYS LOVE HIM MOST". God bless you Dr. Angelou.
Ok Guys! I am crying and it takes alot to make me break down. So it's all Good! I love Dr. Maya Angelou....She is another GIFT from our Creator! For me, my Creator is God...She is such a BLESSING! I am so happy she is a VIP dot now. David, Michelle, Kim, Jerry and Dr. Angelou...Thank you from the bottom of my HEART!
@angelasga I agree the poem IS comforting. Helps us remember that he was a Gift that we had . Despite our enormous loss, we should be grateful God gave him to us for a while.
My tears are falling --- BUT I AM SMILING -- Thank you for that Maya Angelou. I am very honored to be where you now are - A DOT in Michael´s heart. Love Christine
"We had him" and I thank God every day that we had him.
Thankyou Dr Maya Angelou, thankyou for your beautiful poem. To hear you read your own poem with such heartfelt meaning is indeed an honour. I have been left in tears.
"What Michael Jackson had was humility, he was everybody's baby brother or big brother. I think he would be humbly over the moon to know anout this tribute." Let's continue to spread Michael's legacy of peace and caring for others.do it with love, L.O.V.E. xxxxx
One year ago today, July 3rd. Queen Latifah read this poem at Michael's memorial service. This morning I heard Dr Maya Angelou read her own poem and she read it with such heartfelt emotions. Thankyou Dr Maya Angelou, thankyou on behalf of all who loved and will always love Michael.
After her dot is placed, she says: "What Michael Jackson had was humility, he was everybody's baby brother or big brother...he would be humbly over the moon to know about this tribute.
This reading of her own poem, "We Had Him" by Dr. Maya Angelou left me in tears. What a wonderful tribute to Michael...he would be so proud. I listened to Queen Latifah reading the poem at Michael's memorial, one year ago today, but to hear Dr Maya Angelou today was just very very special. After her dot is placed she says of Michael: "What he had was humility...he would be humbly over the moon to know about this tribute." Thankyou Dr Maya Angelou, thankyou from all Michael's fans. L.O.V.E.
Oh, my tears are falling and my emotions are as they were last year when Michael first left us. Queen Latifah read this poem at Michael's memorial, but to hear Dr. Maya Angelou read her own words is such an honour and so beautiful. After her dot is placed,she speaks about Michael: "He had humility...he would be humbly over the moon about this tribute" Thankyou Dr. Maya Angelou, thankyou for writing such a meaningful poem about our "little brother", dearest Michael. We love you most Michael.xxxxx
This is the ULTIMATE Tribute to Michael Jackson. This should go in the archives with the most important videos ever made of or about The King of Pop. Maya Angelou uplifts Michael Jackson to the prestigious status he has always and will always deserve. "We Had Him" is so true and beautiful and should be seen bookmarked and SHARED by every single Michael Jackson fan, every human, on the planet. As a Tribute to Michael, let's make this go viral! Thank you Michael Jackson Tribute Portrait for this.
