Motherhood Vignettes

"Motherhood Vignettes" is a collection of poems, each an episode from different women’s lives, written from the many angles of motherhood—how women think about becoming mothers, how they struggle to hold on to self and identity, how postpartum days blur into hyper vigilant nights, and how the thought of a second baby tugs at old wounds and new desires. These poems sit with money worries and time poverty, with changing bodies and shifting ambitions, and with the invisible weight that love and duty place on a woman’s heart.This is not a manual on motherhood, but a companion for anyone who has ever felt broken open by love and still wondered if they are enough.
