About The Book

In 19 Poems from Vero Beach, Cuban American poet Anna M. Figueroa invites readers into an intimate collection that explores womanhood, faith, love, and resilience with fearless honesty. Her voice—at once sensual and spiritual— moves fluidly between the quiet revelations of the soul found in Vero Beach and the rhythms of Miami.
Each poem is a snapshot of transformation: a woman’s hands remembering her mother’s touch, the sacred ache of solitude, the healing power of words, and the courage it takes to face both beauty and loss. Through vivid imagery and lyrical craft, Figueroa captures what it means to live fully—to burn, to fall, to rise, and to begin again.
Featuring poems in English and Spanish.
