Imprint & Pathways Series.

Imprints and Pathways

A poetic series of movement and presence

Imprints & Pathways is a poetic crossing,
to be read in sequence or in fragments,
depending on where you feel called to walk.

In this constellation, each text is inspired by both imprint and pathway.

  • Imprints & Pathways I

    Part I, The Imprint of Your Birth

    Before we are even born, something of us is already on its way.

    You were born, my child,
    from the meeting of your father and your mother.

    The imprint of their life upon yours
    is surely far greater
    than we might imagine at first glance.

  • Imprints & Pathways II

    Part II, The Labyrinth Of Imprints

    There are moments when something within us knows… before we do.

    When the labyrinth of your psyche begins to reveal itself,
    the body sometimes knows before the mind
    that it is time to move.

    One day, without knowing it,
    you began to walk.

  • Imprints & Pathways III

    Part III, The Mountain

    This poem invites the courage to continue without knowing everything in advance.

    Even if you do not yet see
    the fruits of the effort,
    you are rhythm in the making.

  • Imprints & Pathways IV

    Part IV, TBR soon

The labyrinth is not a mistake in the journey.
It is a memory in motion.
