Many times, they will fumble
Many times, they will need,
Just as many we support
Just as many we will shield.
When the Words Come Easy by Janet Botham is a deeply personal and evocative poetry collection that builds on the success of her debut, Life Simply Complicated. In this follow-up, Janet explores the themes of love, loss, faith, and hope with even greater depth and emotional complexity.
Known for her signature free verse style, Janet draws inspiration from personal tragedies, family, parenthood, and the world around her, crafting poems that resonate on both intimate and universal levels.
This collection takes readers on an emotional journey, shifting from keen observations to moments of profound self-discovery. Janet courageously delves into darker emotions, while also addressing the pressing social issues and dilemmas of our time, offering readers both comfort and thought-provoking insight.
Drawing from personal tragedies, family life, and her observations of the world, Janet's free verse poetry captures the raw and honest emotions that come with life's challenges. The book begins with Family, a chapter that captures the complexity of parenthood and heart-touching stories of ageing. The chapter Disillusionment takes readers on a journey into darker, more introspective feelings, while Social Commentary touches on current events that strike a deeply personal chord.
When the Words Come Easy invites you to reflect on your own experiences through the lens of Janet's evocative and relatable poetry.
