Others simply rise each morning, square their shoulders and walk into the world as though it had been expecting them. You were born to be the second kind of woman. Your power was never measured in a dress size or a magazine cover. It lives in the way you carry yourself, the warmth you bring into a room and the grace you hold on to when life tests you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFew poems have said it better than Maya Angelou's \"Phenomenal Woman.\" First published in Cosmopolitan in 1978 and collected that same year in her third book of poetry, \u003cem\u003eAnd Still I Rise\u003c\/em\u003e, the poem celebrates a woman whose beauty comes from her confidence, her spirit and the way she moves through the world, qualities no fashion page could ever measure. It became one of Angelou's signature works, a crowd favorite she often performed on stage, and it reached a new generation when it appeared in the 1993 film \u003cem\u003ePoetic Justice\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis latte mug carries the poem's beloved refrain, the lines that close each stanza, in crisp white lettering with key words set in gold foil script and signed with Maya Angelou's name.
