Feeling
My Way – 99 Poetic
Journeys
Click for Full Size Image
A fourth collection of
poetry by Minx Boren.
The author says, “For
me, poems are a way to
pare feelings, and the
thoughts they evoke, down
to their essence, to something
essential. As such,
each is a unique doorway
into the realm of Self.” Unlike
self-help books that offer
good advice, poetry allows
the reader to confront
his own truths and touch
her own deep wisdom. $22.95.
Soul
Notes
I have always enjoyed
reading poetry and have
been writing my own since
my teens. I've written
my own holiday poem for
more than 30 years. I've
composed (and read aloud)
all sorts of people poems,
tributes both humorous
and serious, in celebration
of special occasions.
I published Soul
Notes, a first
collection of intimate
poems after years of hiding
them away in boxes. It
felt very courageous to
do so.
Written (and mulled over
and rewritten) over the
past twenty years or so,
the poems in Soul
Notes have been
shared with friends, during
workshops I have led,
and on the web in
the Tea Garden. This
small book is truly a
labor of love. You are
invited to open to any
page and open your heart
and mind to the words
penned there. $13.00.
Soul
Notes Too
Soul
Notes Too is
a second collection
of poems. There is a
basic premise in coaching
that, if you want something
new to come into your
life, you must first
clear out the old. Cleaning
a closet, a garage,
a desk seems to magically
create an opening for
new possibilities to
emerge. In this case,
it was emptying the
old hidden “shoebox” of
poetry that provided
the momentum. After
publishing Soul
Notes the creative floodgates
opened wide and, since
then, poem after poem
has found its way onto
paper, a number of which
appear in this next
collection. (There are
still more in the shoebox.) $13.00.
Ripe ~ A Collection of Passionate Poetry and Pears
In Ripe,
my creative muse has taken
a big leap. In partnership
with Patti Burris, the
wonderful artist whose
paintings grace the covers
of Soul
Notes and Soul
Notes Too, I have
put together a collection
of poems about sensuality
and sexuality, in the
wake of turning 50. Each
poem is presented in conjunction
with one of Patti's gorgeous
and evocative paintings.
AND each partnership of
pear(s) and poem is artfully
placed on facing pages
by a talented graphic
artist and book designer,
Kenneth Ruelen. The result
is Ripe
- A Collection of Passionate
Poetry and Pears published
by and immediately available
through Xlibris. Ripe
is available in both hard
cover ($28.99) and soft
cover ($22.99) plus standard
shipping @ $4.48 for one
book plus $0.99 per additional
book.

Soul Notes and Soul Notes Too
I
absolutely loved your
book of Soul
Notes.
Every page, a blessing
and a gift. So many
of your poems have special
meaning for different
souls in my life. I
plan to share your book
in exactly that way!!!
Keep knowing your truth!
~ Hafeezah
I
truly enjoyed [your
poems]: your ability
to examine emotions
and to articulate them
in their almost endless
variety and subtlety
is quite impressive--and
enjoyable. Although
I guess that all writers
ultimately write about
themselves, your honest,
clear responses to all
the phenomena you touch
upon offer a uniquely
personal, yet welcome
communal songfest we
can all participate
in. Thanks.
~ Paul Neuthaler
I
have just read your
poems and I am gasping
for breath . . . for
real. You have spilled
your guts and come up
refreshed and clean.
Bravo!
~ Florence Ross
Minx
Boren's Soul
Notes is
truly food for the soul.
She writes directly
from her heart to ours
with a wonderful mix
of poignant simplicity,
powerful word-play,
and deep knowing. I
find myself picking
it up for different
reasons -- opening it
to a random page to
guide me in a moment
of reflection, or escaping
into her poetic landscape
while sitting on a New
York City subway . .
. what a magical parallel
universe it offers!
And yet at the same
time, she's writing
from her own very personal
experience and perceptions
of the world around
her. That authenticity
and vulnerability is
what makes Soul Notes
such a gift to anyone
who journeys through
it.
~ Deborah Roth, MA
Ripe
Such
a sense of passion and
desire. I was blown
away by Minx's openness
and honesty.
~ Jeff Mensh
As
rich and succulent as
a ripe pear, the verses
Minx has created evoke
the beauty and sensuality
of intimacy. Each and
every word is delicious.
~ Marilyn Spungin
Insightfully
written. Practical and
thought provoking. A
wonderful read, particularly
with a partner or lover.
~ Jay Halperyn
Feeling My Way - 99 Poetic Journeys
Minx Boren’s poetry touches the heart and challenges the mind. I’ve experienced the power of her words on hundreds in my trainings who have been moved to another level of consciousness by the authenticity of her voice. The mark of a true poet.
~ Craig Neal, Founder – Heartland Circle
Thanks for your continual supply of creativity! This issue of The Sage-ing Journal includes your poem “forever friends.” I love the sentiments of your work – so fresh, alive, engaging! I get a visual sense of what you write. Your words speak to the issues of aging and fully living, living fully.
~ Lori Miller, Editor, Spiritual Eldering Sage-ing Journal
I have said it many times and it is true, your poems speak to me in a way that not many other writings do. I read them with a smile on my lips and in my heart.
~ Ann Fonfa President, The Annie Appleseed Project
How moved I am by your "in memoriam". How fortunate for you to be able to translate your impressions and feelings into poetry, and how good for the rest of us that you share.
~ Esther Flaster, Theater Director
[In church yesterday the Minister said that] a poet's job is: to observe life; to assimilate it; to condense it; and to hand it back to us. That's what you do.
~ Ione Wiren, Healing Touch practitioner
Of one thing I am certain...your poetry truly touches the reader with heartfelt words of wisdom and a sense that you are leading them inward on a deep and beautiful journey.
~ Robert Stack, The Fame Coach
Love your stuff, picked up 2 books of your poetry and did not put them down till I was done. Awesome! … And now you have two fans from Boca. My ten year old is reading your book. He found it and said he wanted to read if for his required twenty minutes. He said it helps him feel calm, he loves it and it helps his headache go away.
~ Amy Botwinick, author Congratulations on Your Divorce
