Cheryle Conelly Hopes to Touch People’s Hearts With Poems Touching on Love, Loss and Enlightenment

Poetry is not only the language of the soul but also of love. Poetry is a form of spiritual communication with one’s inner selves because it distills the emotions that make up one’s lives. Cheryle Conelly affirms these truths in her poetry collection “Love, Loss and Enlightenment: Poems, Thoughts, and Mantra of a Soul’s Journey” (iUniverse; 2010).

“This book is a lifetime in the making as it is a cumulative story from my journey through love, loss, and enlightenment,” said Conelly about her book. She explains the three stages in the following words, “Love, being truth in love, for, without truth, there can be no love. Loss, being the point at which you are able to empty, completely, yourself so that you may be filled. Enlightened, being the state at which you see that all is one and one is all.”

“Love,” according to Conelly, “unfolds us, envelops us, molds us, and creates us. There is no greater power than love… no greater truth than love… and no greater power than love in truth.” For the author, love is each one’s birthright from the moment he/she is born into this world.

In “Love, Loss and Enlightenment,” the reader could find a poem or two with a message that resonates with them as an individual. Delight oneself in a throng of emotive poems, such as “I Have,” “Awake My Soul,” ‘Choosing Love,” and “Weeping.”

“It is with these poems, thoughts, and mantras that I share with you the deepest part of me, that place in my soul that you have always been a part of and that lights my way.”

Author Bio
Each individual human being has a unique and individual journey that they are experiencing in this world. With each experience comes wisdom, understanding, and enlightenment to that deepest part of who we really are and our relationship to the universe and each other. Given the unique experience that each of us has, walking through this journey on our own provides each of us with a unique and individual story, this is my story.

Chosen by something deep within, my story is expressed through poetry, maybe because the nature of my journey is a love story. In fact, if we broke down every experience in our life to the smallest part we would find that it is always about love. As expressed in a stanza of my poetry, we have a tendency to look for love outside of ourselves not realizing that love is within each of us and that we must become love to be able to fully express love. I have spent a lifetime trying to define what love is, but have found that it is only discovering what love is not that has allowed me to truly walk in a state of love with myself which is able to be transcended to others. In every path I have chosen, love has always been the driving force. The journey I started ten years ago brought me back to a place where I always felt love. San Diego California, and that is when my love story began to express itself through poetry.
