Women’s History Forever Rising: 12 Inspirational Maya Angelou Poems
- By
Kweli Wright
In a Time by Maya Angelou
In a time of secret wooing
Today prepares tomorrow’s ruin
Left knows not what right is doing
My heart is torn asunder.
In a time of furtive sighs
Sweet hellos and sad goodbyes
Half-truths told and entire lies
My conscience echoes thunder.
In a time when kingdoms come
Joy is brief as summer’s fun
Happiness it’s race has run
Then pain stalks in to plunder.
