Summary
Details

The Fragile Light of Morning Stars is a unique, mixed media poetry collection about liminal spaces
* - the thresholds between what was and what is yet to come. Containing both new and previously published poems, along with sketches and journal notes, it explores the delicate intersections of mental health, relationships, nature, and meaning. Moving between rhyme and free verse, past and present, these works capture moments of quiet reflection, fleeting connection, and transformation. Perfect for older teens and adults navigating life's big transitions - graduation, moving, or self-discovery - this book offers comfort, insight, and a mirror for those standing at the edge of big change.

Themes include love, grief, nature, mental health, neurodivergence (autism and ADHD), outer space, moving on, breaking up, yearning, nostalgia, city life, out-of-body experiences, and more - capturing the full spectrum of the human experience in the spaces between.

COSMIC AWE

between the earth and sunrise

i stand in awe of night

and teeter on the precipice

of my own fragile light

who am i to be here

to witness this delight

how dare i gaze at galaxies

or marvel at this sight

my eyes are not so worthy

my bones will soon be dust

but something calling

seems to say

these wonders are a must

maybe it's my duty

just to see and not be seen

maybe it's the only purpose

there has ever been
*Liminal spaces are moments in time or a physical location that is marked by ""in-betweenness"". Characterized by a sense of unease or unfamiliarity, there's often an uncanny feeling of being neither here nor there that evokes nostalgia or eeriness. Common liminal spaces and moments include hallways, stairwells, corridors, waiting rooms, airport terminals, train stations, doorways and thresholds, twilight and dawn, moving to a new home or apartment, graduation or the end of school, breakups or endings of relationships, waiting for important news or results, traveling alone or being in unfamiliar places, and transitional moments in nature such as sunrise, sunset, changing tides, or fog and sudden heavy rain.
