About the Book

Each line over the years has become us....
Just as in a worn fabric where tugging, pulling
And wearing has taken place.
Our hand shows our caring, our work, our past.

A healing work that sometimes frays
and the struggle continues.

we pull ourselves up from a funk in work or spirit.
