Out in the Wild

Concealed in a cloak of serenity;

A dagger of magic leaves.

Out In the Wild by Shimica Gaskins is a moving collection of poetry that invites readers to reconnect with the beauty and purpose of the natural world

Divided into two sections-In the Fields, which explores the plants and natural elements native to the fields and the South, and On the Trails, inspired by the wonders you might encounter on a nature walk-each poem is named after a plant, bird, fruit, or other natural marvel. These poems serve as a reminder to honor and appreciate the beauty of the world around us.

As a writer, poet, and social justice advocate, Shimica Gaskins brings a unique perspective to her poetry, blending her passion for words with her commitment to a more compassionate world. Out In the Wild is her debut poetry collection, offering readers a powerful and uplifting journey through nature's gifts.

Perfect for anyone seeking mindfulness, inspiration, or a deeper connection to nature, this collection will encourage you to pause, reflect, and rediscover the extraordinary in the everyday.
