Just as the most profound truths often come to us in moments of silence, wisdom doesn't shout—it whispers. A daily meditation practice helps me to tune into those soft, insightful voices within me. I believe our life has gifted us with unique perspectives, hard-won insights, and a depth of understanding that deserves to be shared somehow. One of my new love projects is Wisdom Whispers. It’s five little poems a month for twelve months. Over the coming year, my intention is to build a collection of sixty poems which capture my answers to life’s deepest questions. I hope you join me with your own poems and allow me to publish a few. If you don’t fancy writing poetry, I hope you enjoy reading them. —- Mary

It’s your poetry. Do it your way.

I invite you to share a poem that reflects a moment of insight, or a truth you've discovered in your own moments of stillness. Whether your poem arrived in a flash while washing dishes, emerged from your morning journal, or has been sitting quietly in a drawer for years, your words are welcome here. In this space, there’s no such thing as “not good enough”. Or, if you'd just like to say hello, ask a question, or JUST share a thought, I’d love to hear from you. — MARY
