Maya Angelou, Phenomenal Woman

           Inspirational poem by a famous poet

(Inspirational poems give people the internal strength they need to overcome a problem, reach a goal, or let go of their resentment or guilt.)

Sometimes, being different feels a lot like being alone. Fitting in allows you to blend in with everyone else, but being different allows you to be yourself, to be unique and great.

Listen to Maya Angelou recite her poem:           

                                  "Phenomenal Woman"

Maya Angelou's "Phenomenal Woman" has a certain  je ne sais quoi.
This is a French expression used to convey a quality that one senses about another without being able to exactly describe it. The woman possesses qualities that attract men without any obvious or logical explanation because she is not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size. 

Explain and define her feminine magnetism.

The woman is phenomenal because of her self-confidence and comfort in her appearance.She knows that she does not have perfect features, but she uses every part of her womanly self to her advantage. For this reason she is a Phenomenal Woman.
