What is Meraki you ask? meraki [may-rah-kee] (adverb) This is a word that modern Greeks often use to describe doing something with soul, creativity, or love - when you leave a piece of yourself in what you're doing, whatever it may be. When this happens, your essence is forever connected. While writing my collection, my very own words were revealing my innermost thoughts and feelings from deep within my soul creating a feeling of raw vulnerability. Meraki was the perfect word to describe my poems. My hope is that at least one will touch your soul in a way in which you can relate on a very personal level and maybe even inspire you to create something from your soul to share with the world.
