Banished Rose (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781038343628)

Banished Rose is a luminous collection of poetry spanning over two decades, tracing the delicate arc of one woman's journey from adolescence to creative maturity. With raw honesty and lyrical grace, Leila invites readers into an intimate world shaped by love, heartbreak, personal transformation, and spiritual awakening.

In these pages, you will walk beside the poet along mountain trails strewn with flowers and storms, feel the ache of a broken heart longing to fill an empty space, breathe in the healing salt air of the ocean, and hear whispered prayers for forgiveness. From her first verses at age twelve to a reflective voice of thirty-four, Leila conjures vivid imagery and deep emotion to illuminate her journey. Each poem becomes a moment of immersion-a meditation on the present-allowing the reader to feel alongside the poet: the pain of loss, the wonder of nature, the quiet search for God.

Banished Rose is a testament to the healing power of words, a companion for anyone navigating life's joys and sorrows, and a reminder that within every heartache lies the possibility of grace.
