Poetry
"Wisdom begins in wonder." - Socrates

As featured on BBC Radio 4, The Daily Poem and the Wee Sparrow Poetry Podcast, poetry is where I go to breathe, pray, dream and play.
My poems have been published in Scribe, Rebelle Society, P.S. I Love You, Elephant Journal, Hello Poetry, Braided Way, Women's Spiritual Poetry and Medium. My first collection of poetry was published by Golden Dragonfly Press in December 2022. It was an instant Amazon bestseller and has received excellent reviews.
In the summer of 2023 I was awarded the prestigious Janavi Held Endowed Poetry & Art Grant. My poetry has also been nominated for a Best of the Net Award.
I'm also delighted to have had my work featured in the Wild Roots Calendar and in the poetry anthology The Embrace of Dawn.
Here's a selection. More can be found on my medium profile page. I hope you enjoy! 💙
We Need to Teach the Children the Old Words
Dawn "One of this year's most beautiful poems." - Thomas Gaudex, Editor-in-Chief, Scribe
"What we need is a great, powerful, tremulous falling back in love
with our old, ancient, primordial Beloved,
which is the Earth herself." - Dr Martin Shaw
