My Mind My Hand Writes [Print Replica] Kindle Edition

My Mind My Hand Writes is a deeply personal collection of over 137 poems written over the course of forty years. In this volume, I share the reflections, questions, and truths that have lived within me—from the streets of New Orleans to the mountains of New Mexico, the retreats of upstate New York, the deserts of Utah, and across oceans to South Korea, New Zealand, and India. This is not just a book of poetry—it is a life's journey set to verse.The very first poem I wrote was inspired by my daughter, Asha Iman McAfee, whose radiant spirit lives in every page of this book. Through poems of loss, faith, resilience, and love, I offer pieces of myself and my experiences—before and after Hurricane Katrina, through spiritual seeking, and in honor of my ancestors and community.These writings are meditations on survival, justice, and transformation. They are a tribute to those who came before me and a gift for those still finding their way. Whether you read one poem or one hundred, I hope you find something here that speaks to your spirit.My Mind My Hand Writes is a written legacy of memory, purpose, and the power of the pen.— R.
