Spark
You and I, dear, are tiny sparks in a world without the nightlights on. Some days the moonlight dazzles; other days, darkness devours. Left to itself, a spark easily vanishes. But with the breath of the fire builder, it becomes something great.
I pray this little book encourages you that even the smallest sparks may reflect the Son.
Some poems and characters come solely from my imagination, but many were based off of personal experience or observations of others. You will find pieces of me in this book and, I hope, pieces of you.

Here's the review I put in my blog post:
This is Allison’s second poem book and I was so excited to read it! Wait, backing up a bit, isn’t the cover AMAZING? 😀 It’s so pretty! And I really love the poem it was inspired by.
Anyway, I think these poems can be a bit harder to uncover than the ones in Unfurling (her first book), but that’s not a bad thing. You can read it several times and still get something new out of it.
I really love her style of poetry. It’s not rhyming, so it’s not too poetryy (how am I supposed to say/spell that?) which is fine by me because I’m not normally a huge fan of poetry! They’re sort of a mix between little snippets of pose and poems. Some of my favorites are “rooftop supper”, “hay day”, “spark”, and “looking back”.
So yeah! The link to buy it is right HERE: http://www.lulu.com/shop/allison-beer... so… GO READ IT!

Spark is full of poems both lovely and sweet. I’m sure every time I read it I will unfurl another layer of depth. Allison, thank you for sharing these words with us. <3
