Soul Thoughts: Poems & Essays

By Ashan R Hampton

Everybody has a story. Everyone wants to be remembered. Our stories and thoughts are worth recording and sharing as breadcrumbs for others who might need guidance or encouragement on their life journey. Through autobiographical poems and essays, "Soul Thoughts" muses on a variety of topics that touch the core of all humanity: fond childhood memories, social issues, religion, spirituality, love, dating and relationships. These short writings snapshot intimate scenes of a life in progress. In the first section, each poem is followed with the author's thought or inspiration for writing it. The second section, "Dating, Mating, Infatuating," lyrically explores the giddy highs and lows of searching for love in a sometimes unkind and uncertain world. The third section of essays, "Living Single: Soul Thoughts," reveals the most thoughtful, humorous aspects of the author's personable writing style as she narrates her experiences of being single at church, work, and other social settings. There is more than one way to write a memoir. So, this work resonates with readers who want to be seen and known in ways that are comfortable and creative.
