Hold Your Head Up

Stand tall

Look high

High into the sky

Let me see your eyes

Let me see your smile

You are a beautiful lil child

Let nothing take your pride

You have so much love inside

Hold you head up

Stand tall

Look high

High into the sky

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This poem is dedicated to the little African girl Oprah was talking to when she visited Africa......Oprah was almost standing upside down, cuz the little girl would not hold her head up.

Very beautiful poem. It's inspiring to anyone reading it to keep up their chin and smile because someone's appreciating it and glowing from seeing them. Thank you for sharing a positive message.
