The Weather We Carry

By Francesco D'Amico

The Weather We Carry is a collection of poems about memory, belonging, love, faith, and the quiet storms people learn to carry within them.

These poems move through ordinary places like a caf , a city street, a family home, a garden after rain and uncover the emotional lives hidden beneath them. They speak of loneliness in a crowded world, of relationships that leave their shape behind, of the language and homeland an immigrant carries across distance, and of the difficult search for faith when certainty is no longer possible.

At times intimate and reflective, at times raw and restless, the collection brings together personal confession, family memory, Italian identity, social unease, and spiritual questioning. The poems do not pretend that every wound heals cleanly or that every journey leads home. Instead, they look for moments of recognition: a child planting a tree, a grandfather watching a parade, a white cloth moving in the wind, a cup lifted despite doubt.

The Weather We Carry is for readers who have lived between places, languages, generations, or versions of themselves and for anyone who has discovered that what we carry can wound us, shape us, and sometimes guide us back toward the light.
