Sheila M Ross

Sheila M Ross contemporary lyric poetry

words that dance upon the ear, whispered, said and sung

words that bring the moonlight near, inviting all to come

words of fire, words of light, words illuminate the night … at Lumière

 lyrical - powerful and sensual - a thoughtful and moving journey.

As a poet Sheila’s inspiration is our struggle for human liberation, and the power of intention, hope and love. In poems of people & community, of dispossession & relocation she explores the power of words, the spirit of place, the magic of life.

One circle, one fire, one planet, one people – from our ancestral beginnings and our daily lives, to our impact on this planet and its impact on us, Sheila takes you on an impassioned journey.
