Savouring Verses

In this poetry book filled with sweet childhood memories, Judith Shaw takes us on a journey back to Jamaica,where Hardo bread is holy,dutty gyal pack up inna tin of tomato sauce,and every bottle of Ting is a zing-zing when yuh take a sip.Where suck-suck was a pacifier fi di blazing sun,and Grandma is a dance and music in her own kitchen.And so much more... Dis yah book ah carry yuh straight back ah yard!Through vivid language, cultural insight, and lyrical storytelling, Savouring Verses offers a heartfelt tribute to the tastes, sounds, and rhythms of Jamaican childhood. This collection invites readers to pause, reflect, and celebrate the simple joys that shape who we are. A love letter to heritage and home, it reminds us that food is not just nourishment-it is memory, connection, and poetry.
