Emma Lazarus was the most amazingly talented poet and writer, intellectual, thoughtful, and truly inspirational.
On her final visit to Europe shortly before she died, she saw the beginnings of the Jewish persecution 50-years before the Nazi-Party came into being, but sadly died before she could raise enough awareness to make a difference. She was only 38.
The world lost a beautiful soul far too early who I'm sure had a lot more poetry inside her which we will sadly never know....
