Discover poetry exploring the emotions surrounding lockdown in new book
SOUTHBURY, Conn., Oct. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Colleen Adele Kelly shares a compilation of poems that addresses the challenges of a century with heartfelt and incisive insight and elements of prayer and wit in her new book "Becoming: Poems of Pandemic, Protest, Prayer, and More" (published by Archway Publishing).
Penned during the pandemic, Colleen Adele Kelly shares reflections that vividly explore the emotions that surrounded lockdown, fears, losses, and gains as a country struggled to endure through each challenge. Divided into six parts, Kelly's poems lyrically detail the protests, seasons and prayer, the pandemic purge, the elections, and the resurgence of hope as the nation began its recovery from a novel virus and year.
Kelly hopes that her book shows readers' dignity and equality for all people, objective truth based on science, the power and efficacy of a prayer life, and nature's beauty as evidence of a creator.
