Full Circle: Love, Hope, and Healing Poems

For the creation of this set of poems, I was initially inspired by the international humanitarian law issues I encountered in my career as a legislative adviser as well as my travels throughout the world. I gradually expanded my topics to experiences my family and I have gone through. I even started to receive poems through my dreams.

The spiritual aspect of my poetry is expressed through themes of caring for nature and animals and connecting with each other. Not only connection within our own communities inspires my work, but also understanding what people who may seem different than us are going through in different tribes and in war zones.
