Where Spirits Dance: Foreward
The depth, compassion, and vivacity of Linda Everett Moyé can truly
be experienced as you explore firsthand her book, Where Spirits Dance.
One will come to know a major writer from the present generation. Moyé’s
inspired poetry is distinctive in many ways. There is a word flow in her
poetry reminiscent of the women poets of the Harlem Renaissance and of
Angelina Grimke, Anne Spencer, and Margaret Walker.
This unique and talented artist writes from her personal and private
mountaintop of experience. You will explore subtle emotional nuances as
her poetic gifts permit. The great appeal of this kind of poetry,
however, is that it communicates a unique experience. Ms. Moyé’s distinguished career as a poet has provoked a
consciousness in many Americans. She continues to write and
publish, committed to blending private wishes, fancies and insights.
Today, we as a people enjoy a quasi freedom in a society desperately
in search for a new humanism to save itself from drugs, alcohol,
pollution, and all of the challenges we are confronted with daily.
America will continue to be wracked by class, racism, sexism and a
myriad of social and economic problems. Hopefully the works of this
young woman, which are scholarly and human, will manifest itself in our
hearts as we share these words of hope in our personal journey of life.
Linda Everett Moyé has dedicated her life and her art to the betterment
of all people as is symbolized in her artistic works. |
