New Jersey-based writer explores her Southern roots through poetry and searches for balance between heartfelt reverence for family and traditions with the bittersweet acknowledgment of change.
Guided by Maya Angelou's words, If you do not like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude., author L.J. Walton has learned how to embrace life's challenges with resilience, always striving to create a brighter path forward. Just as a Georgia peach tree is firmly rooted in the ground, Walton knows where her strength lies. It is rooted in family, her heritage, and the place she calls home.
In Beneath the Roots, Walton shares a collection of poems exploring Southern life. With vivid imagery and heartfelt emotions, each poem embodies the culture of the South through family, tradition, land, and community experiences. Whether you are looking to revisit your own childhood or experience a taste of Southern hospitality, these timeless stories invite readers on a journey through the heart of the South.
