The Gathering of My Leaves Poetry Book

In the autumn, leaves fall from the tree to protect the earth. They bond together to allow young seeds to grow and prosper. They hold a very important role in the cycle of life.




The Gathering of My Leaves poetry book is an inspiring exploration of leaves that have fallen from my family tree. In this book, I express my love of God, my passion for art and my fondness of macaroni and cheese. I also explore the influences of legacy, ancestry, and heritage through poems such as “Cowbell”, “At the Fence,” and “Senior Choir.” I am gathering leaves to learn from the legacy of my family tree.
