I first began writing poetry a decade ago. It was a child in me that sought healing through writing, soothing through expressing.
It was the spirit of my wild muse that was reawakening within me, taking a flow. Today I continue to let my inner child play and express what lies in her heart.
It is more bodied experience, the spark that kindles my spirit is about expressing what needs to come out, put into words what has been long waited to come into the light. It is my body speaking and the whole of me listening. I now become the voice of feelings and emotions and let them have authority.
Through it I make committed friendship and deep connection with voice of inner world, releasing it into outer. I endeavour to show value of both Light and Dark nature of psyche.
To open not only my voice but enable the voice of all living entities , beings and elemental spirits to move through me. I recognise them as my allies in the spiral of awakening. I recognise their power and the pure alchemy when I listen with openness of heart.
I wish for you to find your own medicine amongst the pages of the poem verses.
For Women.... poetry is not a luxury.
It is a vital necessity of our existence.
