Ghosts in the Strawberry Field

Ghosts in the Strawberry Field is a mixture of nostalgic poems, late night thoughts, and unanswered prayers. We’ve all heard it before: To be a woman is to perform, but who are we when the stage lights are dimmed, the red velvet curtains drop, and the crowd disappears? Who do we become then?

In her debut poetry collection, Michell brings to light the struggles and frustrations of all things love, self-acceptance, and small town blues. Her vulnerability allows her to reflect on the bittersweet moments of the past, weaving them into verses that resonate with authenticity and raw emotion. Each poem reveals the complexities of human experience with a depth that invites readers to explore their own journeys. Michell captures the essence of fleeting memories and the enduring impact they leave behind. Her words are both a comfort and a challenge, urging us to embrace our true selves while acknowledging the pain and beauty that shape our lives. This collection is for all who truly feel.
