Words of Power

By Joinel Jeune

Words of Power is the first volume of poems from poet Joinel Jeune, with over thirty original poems that have been strategically chosen from a body of work that spans nearly a decade. In this collection, the selected pieces aim to address the different yet common topics and issues that are ever woven in the fabric of society. Issues such as religion, equality, money, love, life, and death are approached in a very unique way. In the verses, through rhythm, rhymes, and alliterations, truth is poured out in every line. With an undeniable tone of spirituality, these uplifting, inspirational, and thought-provoking poems will grab the reader’s attention. Jeune’s ability to express emotion and human vulnerability while maintaining a sense of the divine is inspiring. He reflects and delves into complicated matters with ease and confidence as the poems prophetically enlighten and encourage.
