I have composed twenty-six poems in alphabetical order A through Z. Each poem is a description of its title related to positive thinking, health, happiness, love, and life. Each poem consists of four paragraphs and one ?nal line. Each paragraph consists of ?ve lines, free verse and intentionally designed without any punctuation. The title of the book is, ABC Book of Poems for the Heart and Soul and dedicated to my daughters, Elma and Zarah. The cover concept re?ects love, peace, harmony, and wisdom matters so important in our lives. I have chosen the pen name, Jami (which is my nick name) as the sole author of the materials. I have dealt with some basic universal concepts and have written these poems in plain English to reach out to a broad range of readers of all ages, cultures, intellect across the globe. This is my ?rst book of poems ever written and so I am very much interested in your feedback so that I can continue to write by meeting, if not exceeding your expectations.

A Nail the Evening Hangs On


Book Description

In her debut collection, Monica Sok uses poetry to reshape a family’s memory about the Khmer Rouge regime—memory that is both real and imagined—according to a child of refugees. Driven by myth-making and fables, the poems examine the inheritance of the genocide and the profound struggles of searing grief and PTSD. Though the landscape of Cambodia is always present, it is the liminal space, the in-betweenness of diaspora, in which younger generations must reconcile their history and create new rituals. A Nail the Evening Hangs On seeks to reclaim the Cambodian narrative with tenderness and an imagination that moves towards wholeness and possibility.
