This collection of poems calls on our human vulnerabilities to forge our truth.
Written in a language that is felt, these poems move through unadulterated emotions, sensations, inspiration and soulful longings to invite moments of reflection and offer space to welcome all that emerges with tenderness and curiosity.
Divided into 3 sections, which comprise an invocation, a painting and an introduction and 11 poems, this collection invites readers toward self-acceptance and toward creating more joy, love, and co-creation in everyday life.
Many poems in this collection explore a commitment to being and feeling whole and living in relationship with the Divine Spirit - whatever that may mean for you.
By calling on qualities such as joy, aliveness, enthusiasm, and openness, they speak to a quiet hope many of us carry: a dream to live more fully, with greater meaning and appreciation for our human experience.
A dream so easily underestimated, and so often overlooked.
The Roses & Quills Edition extends the experience beyond the poems and into your own creative and contemplative practice.
Designed as a soulful container for reflection and expression, this companion space invites you to return to the poetry, linger with what resonates, and respond in your own way - through writing, drawing, collage, colour, prayer, movement, or quiet listening. This section is no longer mine. It is yours.
A space to welcome, witness, and trust what wishes to emerge.
Florence writes from a place where light-heartedness, spirituality, embodiment, and creativity meet.
Rooted in a soulful and embodied approach to life and guided by presence, her work explores themes of tenderness, self-acceptance, co-creation, love, and becoming. Through poetry, she invites readers to soften judgment, trust what emerges, and rediscover beauty in the ordinary.
For Florence, beauty is not appearance but a language of the soul - one that reveals itself through gratitude, simplicity, wonder, and moments of wholehearted presence.
Sharing her time between Ireland and the French Pyrenees, she enjoys hiking, reading by the stove, laughing often, and nurturing meaningful connections with family and friends.
