The sun and her flowers is a Collection of POEMS by Rupi Kaur. Rupi Kaur is born in a Panjabi Sikh family and her parents migrated to Canada as immigrants after their marriage. She is born and brought up there but she calls herself Sikhani. She writes poems on love, heartbreak, loss, trauma, healing, femininity, and migration. Her other books are Milk and Honey, and Home Body.
Through her poem one can connect deeply and her poems tell a lot about her. She makes us realize so many things through her poems like vulnerability is beautiful, showing us what we are doing to ourselves by not appreciating our rawness, our flaws. She writes about love, and self love and supporting woman as they are not the competition or threat to other woman. Some poems are about heartbreak and going into depression and healing and evolving. Some of her work is about femininity, and body positivity. She also has written about the journey of her parents as immigrants and her mother’s sacrifices and father’s hard work to put food on table.
The sun and her flowers connects you deeply. It is the beautiful collection of poems which tells story about the writer. I assume that the big part of the readers includes female that can connect her emotionally very well. If you like reading poems on love, loss, healing, femininity, you will enjoy reading this book. Putting some of my favorites from the book.
