Poetically Baring My Soul

by Jerald Brown

Overview

Poetically Baring My Soul is a testimony, of sorts, to the journey of a man who has faced several obstacles during his travel through life. This book illustrates growth, examines the heart, explores the unknown, and confesses weaknesses through poetic inscriptions. The primary reason Poetically Baring My soul is written, is to glorify God, honor Him with the gift He bestowed, and to share with anyone who can relate, experiences that may be a blessing in the lives of others.

About the Author

I was born and raised in Danville, Il, a small town about 2 hours outside of Chicago. My parents, J.W. and Dizer Brown instilled values and principles of life in me at an early age. I enlisted into the Army 10 days after graduating high school and the discipline I received added to my upbringing, shaping me into the man I am today.

My love for poetry began through hip hop. I had aspired to become the greatest rapper of all time! Alongside the music, I would write little poems about anything from my surroundings, to my feelings, to my experiences. Eventually, those "little poems" turned into pieces of my life.

Poetically Baring My Soul is my very first book. It provides a testimony to the trials and tribulations I've faced, my growth into manhood, and expressions of my spirit, soul, and body. I wrote this book to honor God with this gift, glorify Him, and to connect with others who may share in my walk through life. I am a man of faith. I am confident that my poems will explain my purpose, provide insight, and give readers a honest look into my heart.
