As We Cover Ourselves With Light holds warmth that was stored away and unpacked from the chest of inheritance. Found in its depth is emotive language sewn from faith, love, loss, and acceptance. Remnants of the past and present are fine needles gently guiding an insightful lens through which these poems pull the threads of uncertainty and truth, influencing a powerful tapestry of kinship. Subtle wordplay eases into imagery and music, and pieces moments that unfold into self-discovery. Some poems are spoken with repetition and, at times, the author seems to be looking in from the outside; but she intentionally renders each poem as an experience of her sensibilities, suggesting that the reader draw his or her own conclusion. This debut collection gathers illumination flowing from memory, weaving worth into the fabric of family.
