Black Pansies

Smoke rising, sorrow, and the deep yearning for everlasting love

Black Pansies

Fiza, an adoptee from South Sudan, finds it impossible to accept love and to give it.

Although she has everything a young lady would desire--a supportive family and friends, a rewarding career, a well-appointed turret, where she lives independently—she feels empty. The why, she intuits, hides in a dark cave in her heart's memory. With great courage, she embarks on a treacherous journey home, hopefully to find answers and to free herself for everlasting love, her deepest yearning.
