Time Measured Out! Navigating Life's Journey Through Poetry is a beautiful poetry collection in which author Larada Horner-Miller tells her own life story in verse. These poems reflect the highs and lows of her life and everything in between. In one of the poems, the narrator reminisces about a special moment in their past. An inspiring poem emphasizes the importance of embracing each moment of life with hope and joy. Some of them recall how a house became a home or describe the majestic terrain of Denali. In others, the narrator searches for ways to ease the pain of heartache or recounts their experiences of using different vices to recover from sorrow and emotional anguish. In the last poem, the narrator cherishes their mother, who has always been with them through thick and thin.
Time Measured Out! is an intimate collection of poems that tap into universal feelings of love, life, grief, sorrow, hope, and much more. To me, Larada Horner-Miller's poetry, at its heart, feels soulful, personal, yet relatable. The author somehow evokes a lot of different emotions in the reader through her verses. While you may not have the same experiences as the author, I'm certain you will resonate with most of the topics touched upon in this book. The author examines human nature at its very core through the lens of her own life experiences. This is why I believe the book will appeal to a wide range of readers. I think poetry lovers, in general, are going to enjoy this collection a lot. I know I did, and I heartily recommend this book to readers!
