heart garden: love-ish poems

"heart garden" is Tallie Gabriel's debut collection of poetry, an homage to hoping and risking and loving and hurting and feeling and despairing and trying again anyway. It spans multiple years, people, and experiences. This book is the result of Gabriel plucking the petals off of everything that grew from those experiences and laying them out on her bedroom floor and seeing what patterns they formed, then writing them down.
