Shaping Pearls Caroline Miskenack

In her debut book, Shaping Pearls, Caroline Miskenack has intricately woven parts of her life's story with universal wisdom and the healing power of nature and the elements to create a soulfully expressed collection of poems that traverse the depth and breadth of being human. Her poetry explores themes of personal reorientation through cycles of transformation, illuminations gained by choosing to see beyond challenge, being emboldened by remembrance of one's inner power, coming to know the resilience of soul, discovering ways to liberation, reclaiming self-worth, and honouring the heart-expanding and heartbreaking bonds of love and loss. Shaping Pearls is a journey to find treasure hidden inside of life's trials, to cultivate beauty from pain, to preserve the light in darkness. It is an offering of hope and an invitation for readers to contemplate how they are shaping their own magnificent pearls.
