Wonderful presentation. Bravo! Yes what awesome women.
I was very blessed to meet Maya around 1984. She came to my collage poetry class. Sat in front of us and read from her poems. It was nothing for her to visit us. She is so humble and down to earth. I got to give her a big hug. I'll never forget this.......Im so glad I found your beautiful channel.........Thanks
@albenia1935 Thank you :) and WOW, so lucky you are to have met Maya. I think ALL women of ALL ages should read her work. She is such a strong individual...a true beauty inside and out! Thanks again!! :)
Well I'm speechless. lol. No really.. this is wonderful. I love the video, the people photos, the poem words, the recital by Amy. This is a gem. So many phenomenal women out there.. so many I recognize here. Thanks for posting this!
This sexy voice reminds me of a Bull Durham sequel where I want to be Kevin Costner.....you still haven't told me where you live, but I'm moving to Georgia or South Carolina just for the halibut...
A powerful poem, beautifully read and set to wonderful photographs. Well done Amy. I love the timbre of your voice and it really suits this poem perfectly. Thank you so much for sharing it. 5* + fav. ~ Frances
Amy, this is the VERY BEST you have ever sent me, I am in awe, all the pictures and that poem alone, WOW! I thank you so very much for the video and for thinking of me for this one, 5 stars and fav. Hugs....Zachary!
I fell crazy in LOVE with this poem the first time I read it years ago. So much strength and power in the words, but completely feminine from start to finish. I'm so happy that it brought such emotion to you. LOVE you lots my dear friend:)
Amy, that was Beautiful, you chose some wonderful inspiring women for your slide show,I had never heard that poem before , I had to add it to favorites,I know I will want to hear it again.***** Thank You for sharing!.....LaDonna
Ohhh SO good to see a comment from you :):) I hope YOU get in the mood to maybe make some vids soon! I DO miss watching your stuff. I'm happy to know you are lurking about a bit now :):)
Excellent celebratory video - clearly a lot of love has gone into this! (Just a risk that the importance of the opening pair of lines get swamped rather by the 'cute and built to suit a fashion model's size' women in your selection of photos.)
(and just so you know....I would have added a certain red head to my slide show IF I had a pic of her .... I admire your artistic endevours and your dedication to your family...you would have fit perfectly in this vid :):)
What can I say...phenomenal!!! Thank you for sharing a very moving poem with such grace and beauty. You captured it as only YOU could. You are are a gem.
