Motherhood breaks you open. These poems dare to name what spills out.
In this luminous collection of 108 poems, archetypes and memory entwine. Earth, Water, Fire, and Air weave with lived experience. From the ache of miscarriage to the fierce bloom of pregnancy, from the raw power of birth to the shadowed weight of postpartum depression, these poems speak what is often left unspoken.
Tender yet unflinching, they hold grief and joy in the same breath: a child's laughter, a body breaking open, a spirit remade. Rooted in the rhythms of the natural world, this book embraces struggle, sorrow, and joy as vital threads in the fabric of wholeness.
For every mother who has loved out loud and grieved in quiet, this collection offers recognition, solace, and light.
