Joshua has created a masterpiece in "Watering Dead Plants." This was my most anticipated read of 2024 and it did not disappoint! Through subtle, elegant prose and poems, captivating, gorgeous illustrations, and heartfelt narrations of love, loss, dreams, and the in-between, wanderers, thieves of love, and those with something burning in their heart: regret, second chances, the changing winds of fate - can all find a home here. My favorite poem is "I Dream in Color," which I immediately sent to my husband. Don't wait, buy a copy today!
