NEXT PROMPT: 6/23/11

About the originator of this week's quote:

Mary Garden, born in Whakatane, New Zealand in 1950, went to Waikato University & Hamilton Teachers College in 1966 from where she graduated with a B.Ed and a Teachers College Diploma. After a year’s teaching, she spent a year doing post-graduate studies at the University of Auckland. She abandoned her studies in 1973 to go to India where she spent seven years exploring Eastern mysticism and becoming entangled with various gurus. In 1980 she settled in Queensland, Australia, married, had two children and became an Australian citizen. For four years she held a major role in Maleny’s Black Possum Publishing Co-operative. Her book “The Serpent Rising: a journey of spiritual seduction” is based on her alleged experiences in India in the 1970’s with various gurus including Rajneesh, Sathya Sai Baba and Balyogi Premvarni. She is particularly interested in exploring and investigating alternative lifestyles and eco-villages as well as the ever-persistent need for gurus and New Age ‘fixes’ and writing about these things.

Welcome to The Magnified Muse

Poetry is an incredible journey down the road of creativity. Inspiration comes from many sources: experiences, perceptions and observations. The purpose of this blog is to create a forum for magnifying your inner muse through weekly poetry prompts (hopefully, every Thursday) selected from one of the quotes listed on the BrainyQuote website. To join the adventure, all you need to do is write from your soul, let your imagination run wild, then post your poem through the Comments link. You do not need to put all or any portion of the weekly quote in your poem, but rather explore what the quote means to you and capture that meaning with your gift of words. There are no restrictions on style or length. Just pick up your pen or your keyboard and magnify your muse! Once again, welcome and, as you travel through this poetic odyssey, enjoy the ride!
