Edison, NJ, March 18, 2024 — Shereema Dumas, a creative spirit and lover of music and writing who grew up listening to her great-grandmother tell stories of growing up in Barbados, has completed her new book, “Poetry for the Spirit”: a poignant series of poems and ruminations that reflect upon the author’s experiences in her life, from joy and love to the struggles she was forced to overcome.

“‘Poetry for the Spirit’ is a collection of poetry that touches upon life’s many journeys,” writes Dumas. “It is a collective work to inspire, move, and challenge one to think and feel deeply. Readers could find themselves experiencing the journey.”
