Poetry

In Saoró we be­lieve that read­ing and writ­ing po­et­ry sup­ports a spir­i­tu­al and  cre­ative life be­cause they fos­ter deep pro­cess­ing, emo­tion­al ex­pres­sion, and a  height­ened aware­ness of the hu­man ex­pe­ri­ence. Po­et­ry beau­ti­ful­ly dis­tills com­plex  feel­ings and uni­ver­sal truths into evoca­tive lan­guage, al­low­ing us to con­nect more  deeply with our in­ner selves and the world around us. En­gag­ing with po­et­ry cul­tivates mind­ful­ness, in­spires our imag­i­na­tion, and en­cour­ages a sense of won­der  and awe, all of which nur­ture our spir­i­tu­al growth. Po­et­ry also stim­u­lates our creativ­i­ty by chal­leng­ing the mind to find new ways of see­ing and ex­press­ing re­al­i­ty,  sup­port­ing deep ex­plo­ration and self-dis­cov­ery es­sen­tial to a vi­brant, full and authen­tic life. It is both food and med­i­cine for the soul. 

In Ire­land we have a strong lin­eage of po­et­ry go­ing back to the an­cient times  of the revered trav­el­ing Bard. Every year we host a po­et­ry month on Saoró and we  get to wit­ness the in­cred­i­ble depth and beau­ty of this sa­cred form of cre­ative wor ship that still holds a place in Irish hearts.  

Got po­et­ry you would love to share? We warm­ly in­vite you to send in your work  and we can show­case it on Saoró. This space is free, heart-led, and open to all who  cre­ate with pur­pose, play, and soul. Just send your de­tails & work to us and we will get in touch!  

My Nana

In her small frame, a child-like grace /
But her mind, a beacon to light this place /
Filled with memories of old Dublin's streets /
Where laughter danced to timeless beats

The Third Queen

In this space between two stories /
It’s time to lie fallow again /
To hold my body in the dark /
Just as I hold my breath

Lady Righteous

Her mass rolls in each sound uniquely followed by the next. /
Venturing out seems daunting but what lies within you is even more haunting.

Scanning the Dream Time

But phoenix within, dormant and still /
Awaited the moment, the strength to instill /
From ashes rose a spirit anew /
To face the darkness, to find what is true

Determined Heart

In a world of shadows, her soul takes flight /
Embarking on a journey, seeking inner light /
A quest for truth, a path unknown /
A heart in search of seeds once sown

Remove the Armour

Remove the armour - has been the call reverberating within /
And slowly, and reluctantly, I began to let its wisdom in /
Opening my heart was a battle between love and fear /
But the deserving winner quickly became clear

Healing

Healing is a word that's being hashtagged and sold, and thrown around /
But I wonder if it has truly been found /
In a felt sense and expression /
In an innate need we've met /
Or have we turned it into something else we need to try to 'get'

Phoenix Heart

But phoenix within, dormant and still /
Awaited the moment, the strength to instill /
From ashes rose a spirit anew /
To face the darkness, to find what is true

Home Body

We listen /
Listen to the whispers /
In the wind /
In the moonlight /
In the heart /
In the shadows /
That which has been buried for too long

The Passing

I'm away now /
To the land of peace and honey. /
Where wealth, stealth and things have no meaning. /
Where beauty bares its nakedness /
And stillness envelopes my soul
