Uplifted (poem book)

[Amazon US]

Uplifted front cover by Cat Hartliebe. 
A sunset over the water background with the light blue text "Poems to boost everyone." The title Uplifted and author name Cat Hartliebe are in bright yellow to match the sun.

This was called Hope at first. But the collection is less hope and more uplifting. At least that was the goal when I started the build.

Whether I succeeded at making an uplifting poem book or not is to be determined. Go ahead and judge me. That’s part of being in the public space.

The collection is both ebook and paperback. It’s over a hundred pages as a paperback. All of the work is Cat Hartliebe. That means none of it should classify as triggering. No events that should threaten self or offer bad reminders. I tried to at least. Give me a hint if something hits you the wrong way. I can change.

Index (List of poems)

The collection is split into five groups where poems exist: Dedication; Abstract; Nature; Concrete; and About Cat Hartliebe. Yes, Dedication and About Cat Hartliebe are written as poems. I do add my contact in the About Cat Hartliebe section.

These are the poems listed in alphabetical order just like my index. At some point, I’ll tag any I have on the blog, instagram, or youtube. At some point, all of them should be on the blog or on youtube. I love doing poetry readings. (If they appear multiple places, all will get tagged.)

You’ll notice a few of them have a number next to them. That means I have multiple poems using the same title. I tried to re-title poems so they were all unique, but that wasn’t always possible. So I add in numbers to say which one was made first. The smaller number means it’s an earlier creation. It has no connection to being published or how I feel about the poem.


This will never get revamped. There may be a second collection when I get another 100 poems or so to create a second book of Uplifted.

This one is complete as is.

Enjoy the collection. I can only hope it brings hope to someone out there. Uplifting souls is always my goal. Life is hard enough. There’s enough Tod Lebens in the world. Sometimes we really need Cat Hartliebe.
