Where Poppies Grow. A Collection of Poems

In this collection, each of the lyrical heroines speaks of love in her own way. One returns a ring to the icon, another asks to love 'simply, without embellishments', the third glues the shards of her heart with spring rain. They light candles in the Ilyinsky Cathedral, remove a ring before a ravine, and dream of becoming the wind to kiss without looking back. Here, love is a storm with lightning, a quiet whisper by the river, a pomegranate bracelet as a portal to a past life. All these stories converge in one space - where poppies bloom: at the intersection of memory and present, choice and destiny, love that cannot be held or released.
