Twelve personas. Twelve emotions. Wander Under My Sun is a poetry collection told through twelve different personas, each one capturing a part of what it means to be human. There's Broken, who speaks of mental health and anxiety. Whole, who is learning to love herself. Philophobic, who's afraid to fall. Smitten, who finally does. And others who reflect confidence, heartbreak, hope and faith. These personas show the many versions of the self we meet along the way, and hold the mirror to the stories that shape us. In the final sections, you'll also meet Wordsmith and Reverent, two personas that reflect who the author is most deeply: a writer, and a Christian. Written with honesty, and warmth, Wander Under My Sun is for anyone who has ever searched for their light in the shadows. It's for anyone who has ever wanted someone to understand how they feel at any point in their lives.
Elyn Desiree (pen name) is a Ghanaian poet and medical doctor residing in Accra, Ghana. From an early age, specifically at six years old, Elyn found solace and expression in writing, initially crafting short stories. Her literary journey, however, took a significant turn in 2017, during her fourth year in medical school, a transformation inspired by a roommate's passionate engagement with poetry. This encounter reshaped Elyn's artistic expressions from prose to poetry, leading her to share her verses first on a blog and then on Instagram, where she has been active for years. Elyn Desiree's poems explore the delicate themes of love, mental health, anxiety, and friendships, often drawing from her medical background to deepen the emotional resonance of her work. Influenced by many contemporary poets, Elyn strives to make her poetry relatable and emotionally compelling. In her collections, Elyn helps readers explore the full spectrum of human emotions. She challenges the conventional focus on relentless positivity, encouraging readers to confront and embrace both the light and shadows of their lives. Through her poems, she acknowledges the inner complexities of emotions, while reflecting the reader's own experiences. Outside of poetry, Elyn Desiree enjoys watching Korean dramas. She also cherishes time spent with her cats, listening to the melodies of favourite music tracks, and indulging in her love for reading. Each of these interests seeps into Elyn's poetic expression, enriching the themes and emotions that define her work. As Elyn continues to share her poems on social media and beyond, she remains committed to connecting with audiences around the globe, celebrating the universal power of poetry to inspire and heal.
