Wild Echo Poetry Collection, Pamela Jane Gerrand’s first book of poetry, invites us to enter the wilderness of our undefended heart, and encounter the fierce grace that guides each of us home to ourselves. Gerrand explores themes of love and loss, frailty and resilience, illuminating the everyday and exalted moments that bring joy and meaning to our lives. Gerrand’s poems are both practical and spiritual, earthy and philosophical, rooted in the radiance of divine feminine wisdom. Inspired by the works of Persian poets Rumi and Hafiz, and contemporary poets Mary Oliver and Maya Angelou, Gerrand’s poems are a soft place to land in a harsh world. Tender and triumphant, evocative and incandescent, her tone poems offer both reckoning and reflection. Wild Echo Poetry Collection is a deepening into the love that takes us over the threshold of our frailty and fear, to the wild horizons that shimmer with infinite possibility and raucous beauty.
