WILD HEART, PEACEFUL SOUL: POEMS AND INSPIRATION TO LIVE AND LOVE HARMONIOUSLY by J. Autherine, Poetry, 158 pp., $16.99 (paperback)


Title: WILD HEART, PEACEFUL SOUL: POEMS AND INSPIRATION TO LIVE AND LOVE HARMONIOUSLY Author: J. Autherine Publisher: Autherine Publishing Pages: 158 Genre: Poetry


Wild Heart, Peaceful Soul, is a beautiful collection of poems that provide inspiration to strong, vulnerable, badass women who love deeply, sometimes fall hard but always lead with their hearts. It is a deep and gritty, fresh and robust look at the thrill of loving unconditionally, as well as the mental and physical toll that it takes when peace and harmony are sometimes lost in the process.
Drawing on personal experiences from her own journey of the past 30 years, J Autherine delves into the vulnerable hearts of women from around the world, including from her early years in Jamaica. Poems such as Quiet Storm reveal the pain of sudden loss, while The Rebel Soul carries with it that air of doubt or uncertainty we all feel when in love.

The pain and struggle of women who love deeply and pour into others without first filling their own jars is prevalent throughout, as is the reoccurring theme of reclaiming your heart in order to live and love harmoniously.

Wild Heart, Peaceful Soul has the ability to pick you up in moments when you feel broken or not good enough to be loved and provide the strength in the love you always need as we search for the one who is worthy of our love.

“I am afraid that if I say that I am over you, the universe will call my bluff.”


QUIET STORM

A quiet storm blew
through her life,
swept her off her feet
and then buried her
in an avalanche
of fallen leaves.

The ride was so thrilling
that she didn’t realize how
hard she hit the ground
until her heart started to bleed;
he was already gone.


“I always smile when I see your face.  You are on my screensaver to remind me that happiness does exist.”


THE WEIGHT OF YOUR PRESENCE

Joy is being in your space
but not speaking,
just feeling the weight of your presence,
occasional glances,
soul smiling,
feeling like all is right with the world,
even for a moment.

“The mind is on a new journey; the body had recovered; the heart has healed but the badass soul won’t let go.”

THE REBEL SOUL

I deleted all your photos,
removed them from my memory,
trained my heart not to love you,
my mind not to think of you… much

but

my soul still aches for you,
my soul wants to run to you,
my soul is waiting, quite impatiently,
to betray me.

“I am an introvert but call me anytime; that is how much I love you.”

I DON’T LIKE PEOPLE

When the dysfunction in the world
overwhelms my senses, I cling to you.

When I reject everything in my path,
I still choose you.

When my soul aches for solitude,
my heart wants to pull you closer.

When I crawl into my shell to hide,
you are the only comfort that I crave.

I choose you.

I don’t like people, but I love you.













Janet Autherine is the author of Growing into Greatness with God: 7 Paths to Greatness for our Sons & Daughters, and Wild Heart, Peaceful Soul: Reclaiming Your Heart in order to Live and Love Harmoniously.

Wild Heart, Peaceful Soul, is a beautiful collection of poems that tell the stories of strong, vulnerable, courageous women who love deeply, sometimes fall hard but always lead with their hearts. It is a deep and gritty, fresh and robust look at the thrill of loving unconditionally, as well as the mental and physical toll that it takes when peace and harmony are sometimes lost in the process. Drawing on personal experiences from her own journey of the past 30 years, J Autherine delves into the vulnerable hearts of women from around the world, including from her early years in Jamaica.

Growing into Greatness with God, 7 Paths to Greatness for our Sons and Daughters is inspired by her own experiences growing up in Jamaica, as well as her experience raising her three sons to recognize and nourish what God has planted within each of them.  Her goal, through her writing, is to empower adults and children to see themselves as unique and amazing, already blessed with the ability to succeed in life and achieve their dreams.

Janet was born in St. Thomas, Jamaica, and immigrated to the United States when she was twelve. She grew up in Philadelphia and graduated from Pennsylvania State University and Boston College Law School.  Janet continues to practice law but wakes up at 5am almost every morning to cultivate her inspirational writing and introduce readers to great books through her publishing company, Autherine Publishing. She is a proud introvert and running and reading are her peaceful passions.

Her books are available on Amazon and she blogs atwww.JanetAutherine.com.
