My childhood friend and accomplished poet, Michelle Delaine Williams, joins me on Vitally You® to talk about her poetry chapbook, Good Work for Small Hands.
Her book centers around her childhood in Missouri and her relationship with her mother. She shares that reflecting on those memories was profoundly cathartic, which really comes through in several of the poems she recites for us.
Michelle’s poem, Sprout, which she reads beautifully, transports the listener into a young person’s world of feelings. Sprout invites a conversation about taking responsibility for our own lives no matter how they began. Since becoming a grandmother twice within the last 18 months, I’ve been thinking a lot about how we come into this world and the importance of our upbringing in shaping our future. Michelle’s poems are portals to reconnecting with our younger selves and learning the ways that they wish to be present in our lives.
