Villanelle: To what great good singular individuals sacrificed their lives

To what great good singular individuals sacrificed their lives
To free their peoples from the oppressors’ superior mores
Only to find after they’re gone no true local legacy survives

To what great good Mexican peasants seized land archives
When President...

Across the sky a ***** alone fell
In the expression of racy blue
All bowing in barley grace!...

FOR THOSE WHO ALSO SACRIFICED…
   (APROPOS SHEROES AND HEROES UNKNOWN)

Theirs too, was a journey of blood, flowing 
From shores of seas to beds of rivers:
Filling pitchers of freedom overflowing
With captured liberties and unshackled free spirits
Rising above the river banks of the deltas’ terrors

Yet...

My Mother told me I'll understand,
   one day when I love a man.
She told me I would do anything for him,
   for love love if I can.
She told me I'll do things for him,
   I would have never forseen.
She...

Painful, sad but tender warm

Sacrificed

Mother, 
where are you? 
You left me at the gate. 
You told me I was 
there to find 
my own way... 
alone. 

How will that help, 
the feeling of loss 
I have inside? 
How will that set straight
all the evil that has passed, 
between us...

There, upon the altar of her essence,
     All remnants of her world, now torn apart,
          A prayer giv'n up to cancer and its lessons ...

Brushed cheeks blushing 
from the red of many suns
released to plucking fingers 
from the garden 
of sustaining gifts: 
tomatoes: green, gold, or red.
Saved beyond the reach of frost, 
tenderly fed and tended 
by the sun of summers’ passing.

a shared flesh, rejoicing 
in the bearing of...

Easter has a deeper significance:
it's the resurrection of the sacrificed Lamb,
after Lent, there's no penance;
Christ is that lamb taking sins away,
all we have to do to be forgiven is to pray!
Be that soldier of faith with shield and sword:
he fights for Christ and he proclaims...

SACRIFICED

Gave my heart 
But not for a token,  
Gave my life,
But not to broken,
More than a mom, was one with two meanings,
Would do it all again, for the necessary redeeming.
Sacrificed

Gave my all,
But not for the taking,
Gave my best,
But not for the breaking,
It wasn’t a...

Nobody will ever know the real person that you were
That glint of magic in your eyes, your giggle that warmed your families hearts.

You chose to care for others. You chose to put people first. You stood in front of a virus for which you were...

Promised a honey baked life by Uncle Sam,
a V.A. loan, and a mini-van.
Three kids and a fenced yard.
It should be attainable to those who
worked so hard.
They served, they sacrificed as mother's wept,
came home to be forgotten to a government
that's inept..
Our unsung hero's who fought gallantly,...

A princess came to my door in a dirty robe.
Her eyes made me fall in love with her, like a deep sea with different fantasies.

I choose her to be my sword holder cause my parents kept me under the rule.
A moment came when I fall...
