Remnants of Severed Chains is a collection of over forty new poems by Kyrian Lyndon, author of A Dark Rose Blooms. This book continues with the same intensity as A Dark Rose, running the gamut of complex emotions that resonate with many. The author explains in the book's preface that Remnants is about the process of healing and recovery, the willingness to learn and evolve. Thus, she embraces life's astounding and most personal revelations-afflictions, addictions and relationships, the good and the bad, capturing life's most devastating moments along with its celebratory moments of beauty and joy. In the poem "What Might Have Been," she writes: The robin in your tender heart Hungers for the red berry That titillates your tongue. She carols as the snow falls- And not with the chorus of the dawn In radiant spring. What might have been? Your voice silenced, The spirit of you Destroyed, I see glimpses of your fire From the light that has vanished From your eyes. Your wings soar, Only not to follow Your heart. Whatever the passion, Let it burn. It will save you. Kyrian's exceptional handling of language to create vivid images has won her high praise. Rest assured, Remnants of Severed Chains is a uniquely moving experience that readers will enjoy. Cover design by Jah Kaine via jerboa Design Studio.com
