Poetry is perfect for liminal seasons. And I find myself craving poetic wisdom as winter drags on and slowly turns to spring.

So in this episode, I’m recommending seven recent poetry collections (released in 2023, 2024 or 2025) that are helping me feel alive right now!

These books take on a wide range of themes, tones, and poetic forms, so there’s something here for everyone. Enjoy!
