In Salt and Olives , Margo Finch explores the ups and downs of healing—navigating anxiety, depression and the strength required to find one's way. Through tender verse, this collection captures the weight of uncertainty, the softness of self-discovery, and the small, ordinary moments that tether us to hope. Each poem is an offering, a reminder that a journey is shaped by both sorrow and solace—a life that is as necessary as salt and as bittersweet as olives. some people crave sugar, soft words, easy love, but i always reach for the salt— for the deep, the unconditional, for what lingers long after it's gone. -- from salt and olives
