Gently Planted

I am examining the beauty I see,

holding it up to the light,

exclaiming with breathless wonder

at the refractions of colour!

I am diving into life

with questions, wonder, delight,

exploring the deep and the daunting,

the mysterious and the beautiful,

and - 

this is your invitation. 

Gently Planted is a collection of poems about growing up and growing into one's self.  In a whirlwind year, the author fell in love, faced mental health struggles, and questioned her faith.  The mountain top highs and valley lows of that season drew out of her the poems in this book. She searched for hope and found it in Jesus, in love, and in family.
