An Ode to Life in Poetry - Paperback

by Antonia Frida (Author)

This is a celebration of the poetry that is life, that which runs through our veins and keeps us alive even through the darkest of moments. An Ode to Life in Poetry is indirectly a truth seeker's handbook in navigating the motions of the inner oceans and the infinite tides of feeling. It encompasses a vast emotional terrain, ranging between ecstatic joy, blissful wonder and embodied empowerment to the depth of loss, grief, sadness and rage, and beyond. With a subtle undertone of tantric intimacy with existence permeating the pages, the collection moves through the seasons as an honouring of the cycles of life, exemplifying how things are continuously shifting and moving, yet an unshakable foundation of love within the human condition remains. It is a story of perseverance and hope, of spiritual endurance and surrender to the inevitability that is life, both personal and impersonal, individual and collective.
