Oprah Gail Winfrey (born January 29, 1954) is the American multiple-Emmy Award winning host of The Oprah Winfrey Show, the highest-rated talk show in television history. She is also an influential book critic, an Academy Award-nominated actress, and a magazine publisher. She has been ranked the richest African American of the 20th century, the most philanthropic African American of all time, and the world's only black billionaire for three straight years. She is also, according to some assessments, the most influential woman in the world.

Born in rural Mississippi to a poor unwed teenaged mother, and later raised in a Milwaukee ghetto, Winfrey was raped at the age of nine, and at fourteen, gave birth to a son who died in infancy. Sent to live with the man she calls her father, a barber in Tennessee, Winfrey landed a job in radio while still in high school and began co-anchoring the local evening news at the age of 19. Her emotional ad-lib delivery eventually got her transferred to the daytime talk show arena, and after boosting a third rated local Chicago talk show to first place, she launched her own production company and became internationally syndicated.

Sharing with you my latest poem Queen in hope that you see it and that it blesses you in some great way today:

"Thru a haze of bitter tears we are eternally optimistic ~
armed with such confidence in the ONE that we serve.....
all are NOthing more than mere jars of clay
wearing our stain glass masquerades....."

- Terrybabes



WHAT POEM


What poem can write me of how
your energy of presence has blessed me?

What poem can express the un-expressible?

The solitary lines of cosmic dust
that hold the inner fabric together?

the stitch of hitch and loving friendship quilt
that make the stars dance and trees sway
in the blowing wind of supportive thought -

and wishes that wash and kiss us clean again
with renewed faith and strength to continue
on this journey...

the Light that can blind us if not for Grace that
enfolds and sustains us;

the words not spoken in the silence of heart's core,
to find another companion that can taste the unspeakable
of ourselves as a reflection of ourselves -

the mirrored poem of continuous singing song bird,

the
YOU,
the
i,
the
WE

that BE an eternal happening..

this poem -

louder than louder not spoken but experienced
as undefined movement within -

traversing the lofty mountains of self exploration...


My
joy
YOU!
