Woke to Joy is a celebration of Soul, Soil, and Passion in the form of poetry. Ilis, in her fifth self-published book, continues to entertain while inviting the reader to engage in moments of quiet introspection. She shares mystical moments, happy happenings, and joyful oracles as they reveal themselves along the way. Simple, ordinary language is her trademark style, as she artfully crafts poems that transports the reader along this soul adventure. Her poetry is birthed out of everyday living, loving, loss and pain, that eventually leads to growth and redemption.
