Everything That Is Beautiful

Finding hope and healing in nature's beauty

A debut collection by Angie Kinman

About the Book

Everything That Is Beautiful offers a tender reminder that hope, healing, faith, and love can endure through even the deepest grief. After the death of her oldest child, who had special needs, Angie Kinman began to write spiritual poetry as a way of reckoning with loss, memory, and the quiet presence of grace.

Divided into four movements inspired by the natural world—sky, tree, water, bloom—these poems trace a journey toward renewal, drawing from the Appalachian Mountains that shaped Kinman’s childhood and her lifelong connection to the sacred and the stunning. With honesty and reverence, Kinman shares her search for a way to let in the light.

Advance Praise

“The poems in Everything That Is Beautiful are more than simply beautiful and more than simply true. In this book, Angie Kinman shows us how stillness can teach the way forward. How a heart open to the singing world can save us from ourselves. How grief strips us bare, and love makes our very lives a prayer.”
Margaret Renkl, author of The Comfort of Crows
“Each poem in Angie Kinman's breathtaking debut collection rises from a wellspring of grace… Kinman writes about life and loss with the musicality of a composer, the seasoned eye of a botanist, and the spirit of a faithful child of God.”
Claire Coenen, author of The Beautiful Keeps Breathing
“Angie Kinman writes light into words. Her poems are a creative and gentle invitation into healing and renewed hope.”
Farrell Mason, author of Soulfull
