Unsung Canaan Ballads is a poetry collection by Chyrel J. Jackson of culture, honesty, family, history, emotion, resilience, and literary excellence. It's a love letter to Black people living in an imperfect and whitewashed world. This compilation celebrates the poetically lyrical sisterhood, Black poets, and Black writers. There is something for the grieving soul. Words of encouragement for the sad or hurting soul. Healing for the lost and seeking soul. During loss sometimes we fight to hold on to ourselves. This compilation of poems is healing for the brokenhearted. It reminds us that healing takes time. No one can orchestrate life events. Eventually wholeness and happiness is found through simple things. Music, art, books, nature, poetry, and family. It's time to grab your favorite beverage and nestle into what feels like a little bit of home, Unsung Canaan Ballads.
