About Me

Hi, I'm Marnie - I'm 28 years old and have been writing poetry since I was 10 years old - mostly free-verse, but with some form poetry, prose and spoken word thrown in for good measure. I am a med student and musician - i love to sing, cook, bake and read. I have an adorable one year old son and the best husband anyone could ever ask for.

"One day Gandhi stepped aboard a train as it started to move, and one of his shoes slipped off and dropped on the tracks. Unable to retrieve it, he calmly took off his other shoe and threw it back along the track to land close to the first. When an amazed passenger asked why he had done that, Gandhi smiled and said, 'The poor man who finds the shoe lying on the track will now have a pair he can use.' With the eyes of his imagination, Gandhi saw a man with bare feet, saw him coming across a lone shoe and desperately searching for the other, and saw the disappointment on his face when he didn't find it; seeing these things, Gandhi did what he could to help."
