WORDS

I have always found connection, solace and inspiration in poetry. I've written poetry all my life as a way of getting all the things going on inside out to connect with the world. 

 

Words have the power to bring people together, to change perspectives and unify vision and I believe that poetry makes ideas accessible in ways that draw in and engage people in a different way – from somewhere deeper than the rational mind.
