Birdsong is the first published anthology of poetry from Allison Carroll. It contains 20 original poems, some of which were first written a few years ago, and the rest on a sunny day on her backyard patio. Many came about as the result of a writing prompt in the form of a 20day poetry writing challenge issued by Alvira Publishing House, a sister company of BookLeaf. Poems cover a range of topics from agency, to body image issues, anxiety and depression, issues of race and of faith, of friendship (or a loss thereof), love (winning and losing it), and insurmountable grief. It is the author’s hope that readers will find something of themselves within these poems to bring them comfort.
