UNEARTHED

Unearthed is essentially the song of the earth and the self. It is a collection of poems that is offered as a prayer to humanity. The poems in the book are rooted in the natural world, not merely as setting but as companion, mirror, and metaphor. Rain, birds, soil, insects, and flowers are not passive symbols but active presences, echoing the rhythms and ruptures of human life. In their transience and tenacity, is reflected of our own joys, struggles, and silences. There are strands of ecological observation, emotional candour, feminine experience, and cultural insight.
Threads of womanhood - its strength, sorrow, endurance, and erasure - run quietly but insistently through many of these poems. The emotional landscapes explore longing, loss, aging, love, injustice, wonder. There is a deep ecological consciousness seen in the natural landscapes. They echo shared human experiences. The poems hold space for reflection, empathy, and connection.
Some of the poems are a direct critique of consumerism, digital isolation, or political apathy. This is balanced with empathy and emotional insight. Some poems are tender, some fierce, all born from an urge to observe, remember, and imagine a gentler, more attentive and a more empathetic world.
