In Poems of Life, Lashae Phillips delivers a soul-baring journey through pain, love, identity, and empowerment. This collection of more than 60 poems is a window into the unspoken battles we fight and the resilience it takes to keep rising. From the silent struggles of The War Within and The Cries Within to the haunting echoes of I Cry for the Little Girl That’s Inside, Lashae explores what it means to heal while still hurting. She writes with fierce honesty about Trials and Tribulations, Heartbreak, Devastating Calls, and the moments when we ask Tell Me Why, Why, and Is It True.

Whilst Europe endured the Dark Ages in the 6th & 7th Centuries, devotees of Shiva and Vishnu in Southern India were creating the Bhakti Movement. Some of these exponents, as in our volume, were bestowed with the title of saint but some had the additional title of sant, swami or goswami. Broadly speaking, Bhakti poetry, as in Hinduism itself, is divided into ‘Nirguna’, the idea that the divine is formless as exampled by Kabir and ‘Saguna’, which interprets the divine as having physical form as captured by Mirabai.

Often, when speaking of what he has called the poetic operation of language, Scott Cairns has characterized that event as our “glimpsing an indeterminate, inexhaustible enormity within a discrete space.” This is the poet's continuing fascination with lacunae, those spaces, those openings that offer more within than appearances can register from outside the ostensible covert of their terms. Cairns is here focused upon how an image, a word, or—in the case of the Theotokos—a womb can contain the uncontainable.

Butterfly, Fly! is a book of free verse poetry that shares personal perspectives about the impact that divisive social constructs and racial trauma can have on life outcomes. It also touches on mental illness, spirituality, and the pursuit towards trusting a power higher than self, as a means to overcoming.

This collection offers a rich harvest taken from one season in the poet's creative life. Like movements in a musical composition, these poems share leitmotifs—grief and the desire to honor those "saints" who have passed on; the sacramental power of nature; and, how works of art illuminate and console as they do. They point to the tension between the practice of monastic silence and the urge to bear witness, interrogating faith in the light of crises facing the earth and our human community.

I think Christian poetry is similar to prayer in that it focuses on the Love of Him who is Faithful and True. If we can write so many poems about love, why not write poetry for the One who is Love Himself? Why not seek love from whom it can be found? This book is titled "Poems For a Faithful Heart" because it is a collection of inspirational poems for God, the One with a Faithful Heart. He is the Lover who seeks us and will never disappoint us. If you are looking for religious poems, poems for God or poems of faith, this book is for you. May it lead you to the One who loves you most!

“The double question we must always ask is, ‘How does faith inform art?’ and ‘How can art animate faith?’” Imagination, appreciation of beauty, creativity: all of these qualities have been given to us by God. For the Christian artist, the drive to create something wonderful is also a...

Omar Khayyám (1048–1122) was a Persian mathematician, astronomer, and a philosopher who was not known as a poet in his lifetime. Later, a body of quatrains became attached to his name, although not all were his works. These verses lay in obscurity until 1859, when Edward FitzGerald (1809–1883), an English country gentleman, published a free adaptation of this Persian poetry. After its discovery by D. G. Rossetti and others, the verse became extremely popular.

America's first poet, Anne Bradstreet, wrote poems regularly for her family's private enjoyment. But in 1647, unbeknownst to Anne, her brother-in-law set sail for England with a manuscript of her poetry. Upon his return, he presented her book to her: The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America. Anne was thoroughly embarrassed but also pleased. Subsequent generations have valued her gifts as a poet as well, and her poetry remains in print to this day.

I Wonder, Can You See Me? was birthed through life's trials, tribulations, success, joy, and God's liberation. It is a collection of inspirational poetry that set me free, which allows me to share my journey with those who are wondering if they are seen and, most of all, with those that need to see within. I found myself through this journey when I realized God was and is with me always.
