Maya Angelou
In this beautiful, deeply moving poem, Maya Angelou inspires us to embrace the peace and promise of Christmas, so that hope and love can once again light up our holidays and the world. â€œAngels and Mortals, Believers and Nonbelievers, look heavenward,â€ she writes, â€œand speak the word aloud. Peace.â€,Read by the poet at the lighting of the National Christmas Tree at the White House on December 1, 2005, Maya Angelouâ€™s celebration of the â€œGlad Seasonâ€ is a radiant affirmation of the goodness of life and a beautiful holiday gift for people of all faiths.
