My high school English teacher @ redneckistan high (01) LOVED her natural themed poems.

They are powerful. Everyone in that class could say something about her work.

I used to work in Beyond Baroque , which is a great poetry center in Los Angeles and we had a reading with her around 2010 the books were flying off the shelves and the place was packed , it was amazing and she was the most lovely wonderful lady

Nikki Giovanni along with Langston & Baldwin, they were my source of inspiration as a young child ❤️ the perpetual source as to how & why I am the poet I am today and able to make a living from it...for that I shall ALWAYS be grateful 💙 Rest in Peace muse with the other Angels of light 💔
