I've known @fiercewarrior for about a week or so here on the Steemit platform. I was very happy to see how kind, thoughtful and dedicated she is to help people, share her knowledge and insights and always be a positive influence. When I knew that she wrote a book, I didn't hesitate to buy it through amazon. I received the book a couple of days ago. I read it and was very impressed by how courageous she was to portray her life story, her pain and suffering, her commitment to keep going and her dedication to do good, regardless of how people around her were.
The book is titled: "The stone the builder rejected".
I wrote the following poem, as my book review, and I dedicate it to @fiercewarrior.

I read your book ... It made me know,
What you've been through and how you grow,
I thought I'd read few pages, that would be fine,
But I couldn't stop reading, till the very last line.
Never had I imagined, how cruel people could be,
Even a mother, a sister and a groom to be,
Never have I thought, misery can stay for long,
Since childhood you've ached, I heard your song,
So much pain and suffering, you've been through,
From those closed to you and from strangers too,
But you've always found a way, to pull yourself up,
I know you don't like that phrase, I know what's up,
You fought and struggled, you shed many tears,
But you stood strong, you conquered your fears,
Years of agony and pain, lead to depression,
But you didn't lose hope, you survived suppression,
You did good to people, and people did you bad,
You cared for them, and they gave you their back,
I felt your words, I saw your pain,
How could they be so cruel, no need to explain,
Now I know, how strong you've been,
The last few pages, brought the light within,
Now I know, the meaning of your last post,
Look at your past, learn from it the most,
But don't reside in it, don't burn the toast.
