Fire In A Conch Shell & Other Poems

fire in a conch shell & other poems is an enchanting book of poetry by Belizean-American poet Jason S. Price, which explores the relationship between poetry and philosophy. By using poetry to connect to a range of philosophical ideas, the poems expose deep human emotions. These poems touch familiar and new places and allow us to pause and contemplate our sense of self. At the core, each poem is a love poem: a connection between the reader and something more, something deeper, something spiritual. Each poem engages the aura, those deepest feelings, and thereby create a space to allow the body and soul to connect. These are moments to pause, to appreciate, to awe, and to praise the beauty and majesty of the world, of the senses, of ideas, and love connected. The title poem "fire in a conch shell" sets the tone for the collection: at its core, it's a tribute to love, shaped in the poetic language of the elements, of feelings, and connections through memory and experience. The lines "By the seashore, I found your scent curled in a conch shell" is more than a statement; it is an invitation to enter an experience of memory and magic. Welcome, and enjoy each poem, allow each one to stir your emotions.
