You were always the heart of happiness to me, she acknowledges in this loving tribute, Bringing nougats of glee / Sweets of open laughter.From the beginnings of this profound relationship through teenage rebellion and, finally, to adulthood, where we stand to inherit timeless maternal wisdom, Angelou praises the patience, knowledge, and compassion of this remarkable parent.About the AuthorMaya Angelou was raised in Stamps, Arkansas.
