So much to do….so little time!
A million dreams and not enough moments to make them come true, but I go on, for I never want to feel that I did not use all that I had, to do all that I could.
Words have always been close to my heart, and poetry my greatest love. It was destiny perhaps, that brought me into the world of social media in mid-2014, where Manic Sylph was born, a name that I chose to describe what I am in two simple words. I began my journey with an inspirational blog and in time meandered into poetry, where I feel my soul has found its home.
Contact me on any of my accounts and I would be happy to answer any questions that pop into your mind. I hope you will enjoy your visit into my world and will return for more.
~Mona (Manic Sylph

Quotes by Mona Soorma  (?)

“Time is not just the hands of a clock. It isn't just a change of seasons either. It is a treasure trove of precious moments, infinite little joys and blessings, precious smiles, tears and heartbeats.”
Mona Soorma, Soul Food And Instant Karma

“A fighter never gives up. His scars are his ornaments. He may never be whole, yet he’s bigger than all his battles and beautiful, even in his brokenness.”
Mona Soorma, Soul Food And Instant Karma

“True love is like a bird of many colours, at times, soft and comforting, at others, wild and intense. Yet, it is a fire we all desire.
Don’t be afraid of its intense force. It is a spark that consumes the heart, but it quenches the thirst of the seeking soul.”
Mona Soorma, Soul Food And Instant Karma

“Maybe you’re not perfect, but you certainly are not unworthy. You are beautiful. A flower with a petal still unfurled does not lack in fragrance.”
Mona Soorma, Soul Food And Instant Karma

“From a place of darkness
Stars watch the wounded dreams sigh
On their bed of aches and broken skin
But they are dreams, and all they know is how to rise”
Mona Soorma, Unrequited: Poetry From The Hurting Heart

“True love is like a bird of many colours, at times, soft and comforting, at others, wild and intense. Yet, it is a fire we all desire.
Don’t be afraid of its intense force. It is a spark that consumes the heart, but it quenches the thirst of the seeking soul.”

“I took a thousand breaths
But none
Could efface the one that smelled of you”
