From the book:
SACRIFICE
Pains and losses from birth she nurse me
Working to raise, sacrifices and she make
During day making hay sunshine for a pay
Night she pray for blessings to make way
Voice unheard clothing prepared robe on
Daunting tasks market path she moves on
Before break of dawn meal made nutritious
Feeding and growing life, child never to cry
Seed turning to tree for atlas fruits ripen
Years of wipen make sure life's dust free
Sacrifice unsung and the harvest become
Reaping till more, price soar like diamond
A mother's love born from utmost sacrifice
A life for a life surviving and she's priceless
STRANGE
Can never tell journey to where heart lead
Searching for love like needle in haystack
Spin return for pleasure a soul to be filled
Mountains, downhill, lake found in desert
Attribute heal tributaries magic like trick
Hard rock water springs beauty to nature
Roar wanting pet keeping search time go
In strangest flowers grow a love so bold
Witnessed by air classic and stories told
Kisses to engrave lasting living days old
Honey so sweet a soul to hold time cold
Keep going walking into ancient of days
Strangest place happiness can be found
BROKEN
Views, experience marred on broken mirror
Looking deep in variance move back to zero
Shredded and split of blood thongs on head
Scattered thought smashed emotions of led
Moving round circle camp fire burn passion
Elated turns fear new life come in retraction
Retracing to mend solutions sailing faraway
Revive pieces found make whole time again
Imperfect to find, glue for once broken heart
Deepens in flow, stream of feelings to catch
Love to heal, crying eyes revealing sunshine
Making bright years images bringing smiles
Coming from hinter- broken soul rejuvenate
Watered once more budding flower it grows
