Embrace the strength that comes from surviving experiences of love, loss, and expectations. If you enjoy poetry that shows the dynamic inner workings of women while traversing the modern world, then this book is for you.
Not Everyone's Cup of Tea is a collection of honest, raw poems about experiencing the world as a woman; the vulnerabilities, strengths, and expectations we must navigate while finding our own true selves. Through Megan's use of imagery and candor, we see a woman develop from a young girl leaving her hometown to experience the world on her own, the highs and lows of relationships, and the losses, love, and confusion of becoming a mother. Megan also shares poems inspired by her twenty-year military career and the dynamic situations and expectations women find themselves facing. While these are her own experiences, Megan hopes to offer words that others can find their own truth in and possibly provide a level of healing, as writing this book did for her.
Perfect for readers looking to explore the themes of:
- Young love
- Heartbreak
- Miscarriage and pregnancy loss
- Marriage
- Depression
