Book Cover & Preview Text
Burden Me Not Even though the sun was
But now the dark clouds
Took over and the rain has washed
It’s smile away
Burden me not
Even though the birds were
Out this afternoon, now there is
No chirping and singing due to the moon
Burden me not
Even though spring blooms
Many flowers that scent the air
With the help of a graceful breeze
The winter will again come and
Wither all with its cold and icing freeze
Burden me not for your eyes will see this all again
Woman I am a woman
I should be picked, from all the rest
Smelled, caressed, and loved
Admired for my beauty
With such sweet fragrance my pedals hold
My stem elegant, but strong
And my thorns sharp enough
To draw the blood of attention
Black Man
I stand tall and strong
Scorched by deserts sun
Beat by sands of white
And still I fight
With my thorns of strength

About the Book
This book is about things that people wonder about. It is about things that happen in our everyday life that are natural things that cannot be changed: The incompleteness that we feel inside and the strong desire to be fulfilled; Our powerful inner strengths, dealing with who you are and trying to get others to accept whom you are. Topics also include understanding what we feel and how we feel and expressing our emotions, the southern ways of life, and the frustrations of envy and jealousy from others when trying to succeed. Experience the ups and downs when life throws you a curve ball, and learn from every situation in life, so that when the same situation occurs again, you know how to deal with it.
