Maya Angelou | Beloved Poet passes away at 86-years

Maya Angelou, a world renown American author and poet passed away on May 28, 2014 at the age of 86. Maya passed away peacefully in her own home in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Though she has passed on, she leaves behind not only a son (Guy Johnson), but also a generation of touched hearts and changed lives. Maya’s poetry extended far beyond the words on a page — she was also a human-right’s activist and a humanitarian as well. And her dreams and Ideas live on in the hearts of all those she impacted with her artistry.

Although we did not know that Maya’s final tweet would be her last, She was able to blow us away with her last piece of art using Twitter as her Canvas.

Listen to yourself and in that quietude you might hear the voice of God.
