"To Wilt and Bloom" is- amongst many things-- a journey of healing. This collection of poetry and prose takes the readers through an uncovering of peace and ease after having endured the trials and tribulations of pain. The author explores topics of womanhood, sexual assault, coming of self, forgiveness, and learning how to heal from the burdens of life. "Take my hand. I'll show you where the sun sets in one place and rises in another." -Mariah Hicks
