This book is a collection of poems written over the past thirty yen by my sister Donna. Many of then were written for our parents and saved by our mother. After our father died of cancer I collected the poems, and with the coaxing of family and friends, who believe they are so beautiful they should be shared, typed them for publication. The poems are divided into four categories; Our Family, On Life, Nature and Prayers. These poems attest to the beauty and strength of our parents' character and the lessons they taught us.
