Call Us What We Carry by Amanda Gorman
5.0

Amanda, Amanda, Amanda. Thank you for your gift to this world.

This is what my heart needed. It was not always easy reading - this book is a collection of poetry that is about the pandemic and grief. It is healing but also very heavy. My favorite was “Life”. But there were so many beautiful lines that spoke to me and resonated.

“Love is justified by loving.
Like you, we are haunted & human.
You, like us, are haunted & healing.”
