Watching Flowers
by Frankie Francis
ARTWORK BY CARLIN FRANCIS
In the whispering stillness of nature rests profound reflections of our own unfolding. As flowers take root, unfurl, and fade, they mirror the tender cycles of love and becoming we experience in relationship with ourselves and with others.
Watching Flowers explores these natural rhythms, guiding us through the inevitable soulful stages of falling, grounding, budding, and shedding; the ever-changing landscape of love in all forms.
Let The Light In
By Frankie Francis
ARTWORK BY CARLIN FRANCIS
An ode to healing that takes readers on a journey home through poetry and mixed media artwork.
We cannot know love without pain, forgiveness without heartbreak, light without dark. Navigating the ebb and flow of this human experience is why we are here. To embrace our wholeness is to accept our darkness–only then can the light shine through. The light breaks us open and offers us space to heal and renew. If we allow it to.
A POETIC SOUNDTRACK
Experience Let the Light In musically with an intentionally curated playlist from ApothoGothic.
Kintsukuroi for the soul. Some things are stronger, more beautiful, and more valuable after they’ve been broken.
