Her Hands Remember Fire: Poems on Healing, Survival, and Becoming by Adisa Noor

This was such an emotionally rich collection of poetry that I found so many relatable including: Healing Is Not Pretty, a poem about how losing people and wounds of the past can linger and make you find your strength and resilience to carry on and protect your peace. The Art Of Stillness, a beautiful poem about the simplicity of just being and not feeling the pressure of constantly needing to be on and doing something draining yourself all the time. Naming Joy, about the feeling of joy and letting it be allowed to happen after putting others before yourself. The Woman I Am Now, was a fantastic poem of empowerment and the way finding peace and silence that comforts you over making you feel lonely. The Language Of Light, was a poem about the beauty and grace light can provide whether natural or artificial and the comfort surrendering you to calm and hope in the hue. It was truly a beautiful well rounded collection of moments drawing emotion in mundane often overlooked situations.
