This is why naming your children is so important. Its the first gift you give them. Her mother gave her the name Zora and she lives up to her namesake. I love her.
It's so funny you wrote this because before I opened the video I thought about her other pieces and automatically felt inclined to name my future child Zora, haha! The Zoras out here are pure power man (:
Yoooo I just finished watching 'Premature'. THAT was the poem she read! and this isn't my first time listening to the video either (already had a highlighted thumbs up).
She is amazing. I just realized she is the girl who did the piece about biracial hair. In 2006!! She is so grown. Ya'll should check the piece out. She was so cute just as well spoken as now.
You know, I;m so pleased that another Woman understands that this is NOT a romantic type of "love" that is being described, We are capable of being in a friendship such as this,,,,just friends!

But you got make something out of that name! Not just live up to it
Years later and I keep coming back to this 🥺🦋
I come every year
I could listen to her all my life! God bless her!
I'm beginning to fall deeply in love with Zora Howard's poems..!
"I cried so hard my teeth shook".. also, "mornings when my edges are being disrespectful" Zora Zora Zora
Oh Lord I so respect this woman!!! Love from South Africa!
I'm going to miss seeing her on this channel so much. I've watched this poem a million times
Jesus, what poetic sorcery is this?!
Deep huh? That's the power of the African Goddess.
I know!!
This put tears in my eyes. Thank you, Zora.
I sure wish friends were like the one she describes in this poem existed when I was 13 and choosing friends. Great piece!
I wish it happened earlier in my life too. But there is something still inexplicably special when it happens, at any stage of one's life.
Dope ode to a friend. Zora always comes through with the phrasing and emoting.
Another slaughter of thought and feeling and truth: "Infinite while feeling infinitesimal"
Still coming back here. Every. Year.
Definitely a poem I'll always come back to.
Such a beautiful soul. Her performances always leave me speechless and inspired.
I almost cried at the end, wow that hit me deep ❤️
Talk about relatable! Definitely one of my new favs from Zora Howard!!
Came here after watching premature and I’m more in love with Zora.
This poem makes me feel so warm every time. I aspire!
