For my adventure and life buddies. Ryan, Theodore, and Wrenley. I keep thinking I’ll finally write a poem that says it all, but I’m okay if I spend the rest of my days trying.
Dear Reader,
Roots is a collection of nature themed poems about the people, the moments, and the places that make us who we are. It is an exploration of human nature but also very much a love letter to the natural world and the wonder we find there. I hope these words bring you healing, hope, and a sense of belonging.
