This poem sends a powerful message to women from all over. Maya Angelou is a very strong woman. As she writes, stand up and toughen up. Do not let others drag you down no matter the amount of mud they throw at you. Show them how strong you are by continuing your dreams and following through with them. Let others see how bright you can shine.

This poem is devastating to read as someone who has had family lose their children before birth as well. Grief is a hard thing to deal with especially when it's a child. We don't have any idea what goes on inside anyone's mind when they lose a loved one. The poem is hard to be one sided as the difficulty of the situation. The husband had prior deaths so he had more of an idea on how to grieve, the mother on the hand, it was her first loss.
