Description

Porchlight is a collection of poems that explore themes of faith, love, loss, and personal reflection. The poet invites readers to find solace in the unwavering light of faith, as each verse addresses both the divine and human experience, offering comfort, gratitude, and spiritual guidance. With a focus on overcoming challenges, the poems reflect the strength found in faith during times of trouble.

The collection also examines the depth of love in its many forms—romantic, familial, and the bonds of friendship—while acknowledging the pain of abandonment and loss. The poet captures these experiences with heartfelt words, expressing both sorrow and triumph. Nature imagery, from violets to rivers, serves as a powerful backdrop for these emotions.

Porchlight is a gentle reminder that, in moments of uncertainty, God’s light is always shining, guiding us home. For anyone seeking encouragement, compassion, and wisdom, this collection offers a comforting invitation to embrace faith, heal from past wounds, and rediscover the beauty of love and connection.
