Poetry came first for me. I was thirteen. My word-cantations help me make sense of so much that was tripping me up, obsessing me, giving me pause, knocking me out with its beauty. I’ve continued to write poetry over the years and this is a collection of some of my most beloved, polished works chosen because I think they say something about the nuances of love and especially how the real challenge is to remember to turn some of that bright light inward. My amazing sister made the cover and the interior illustrations. If you order here, your copy will come directly from me. I am happy to sign it with a kiss if that is what you please. <3 Thanks in advance for your order and support.
