Beschreibung
These poems are not about what they claim to be.
They are not about salmon, or gardens, or walking palms.
Not about affairs, or boundaries, or miracles.
Each title misleads, or rather, invites:
to look again, to read between the lines,
to step beyond what is named
into what is truly being spoken.
This is a book for lovers of poetry,
and for those who never imagined they might be.
Its clarity welcomes. Its layers linger.
It speaks to the quiet unfolding of what it means
to be human, with tenderness, with truth.
This book is for readers who crave poetry that listens, leans in, and dares to leave the final meaning open. A companion for wanderers of both the outer and inner world.
What if poems weren’t about what they claimed to be? In this playful, profound collection, Diana Button leads us through 40 lyrical meditations—each a door into the world beneath words.
Balancing playfulness and depth, this collection offers accessible yet profound poems that weave language, nature, and inner awareness into a resonant whole.
Autor*in
Diana Button
Diana Button's poetry invites readers to meet the depth of their own nature and rekindle a sense of connection with themselves, the Earth, and something deeper. At the heart of her writing lives the enduring question: Who am I? With a voice that is both playful and profound, she writes with clarity that resists simplicity, always grounded in ethical and emotional awareness.
She is the author of Wakes of Joy (2025), Welle der Freude (2025), From Pen(elope) with Love xxx (2020), and Marrying It All (2003), with work featured in Writing from a Small Country and D'Waasser am Mond (2004). Born in the UK to a British father and German mother, she now lives in Germany with her husband of thirty-five years. Her poetry is nourished by nature, family, the voices of poets, philosophers, and spiritual teachers, particularly Gangaji and the lineage of self-inquiry passed down from Ramana Maharshi.
