My selection,have published my account of this poem and my reflection of it as a poem -Color- written 31/3/2016 and published in my poetry collection- Searching for an Oasis.
I also wrote a poem ' Envious of your energy' dedicated to her and which will appear in a future collection.
All of her poems are significant ,however Still I rise, lives with me,my family and many other families.
She captured the experience of the black community in that poem. She captured all of our ancestors. It is a call for everyone to work together to #changethestory and is especially relevant as we celebrate Black history month October UK
