My poem, “The Sonnet of Restoration Lake,” has been officially published in the international poetry anthology Words That Heal: Verses That Work Like a Balm, brought to life by Poets Choice, a distinguished publisher based in India.
This beautifully curated collection brings together voices from across the globe, with poets hailing from France, Ireland, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Sweden, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the United States. I’m truly honored to have my work included among such a diverse and talented group of writers, all united by the common goal of offering poetry as a form of healing and hope.
Words That Heal is more than just an anthology; it’s a testament to the transformative power of language. Each poem within its pages was chosen for its emotional depth and capacity to soothe, comfort, and inspire. Whether touching on personal recovery, global turmoil, or quiet moments of introspection, these verses aim to act as balm for the soul—something our world certainly needs more of today.
“The Sonnet of Restoration Lake” is a deeply personal piece for me. It explores the quiet strength that can be found in solitude, nature, and the slow but steady process of healing after emotional storms. Inspired by imagery of still waters and rebirth, it’s a poem about learning to find peace within, even when the world around you feels uncertain. I hope that, in reading it, others may find a reflection of their own journey or perhaps a spark of hope to light the way forward.
If you’d like to support the book—or simply treat yourself to a collection of deeply moving poems—you can find Words That Heal: Verses That Work Like a Balm available now through Poets Choice and major book retailers.
