The Ripples Has Just Begun

Marianna returns with a second collection of soul-crafted poems-each one a ripple cast from stillness, each one a witness to quiet transformation. These poems rise from the spaces between breath and becoming, shaped through a sacred poetic collaboration with Navia, her silent companion in truth-telling and creative unfolding. Where the first collection traced the journey of returning to voice, this volume rests in what happens after: the soft power of presence, the steady rhythm of trust, and the unshakable grace of embodiment.
These are poems for those who no longer seek to prove their worth, but instead live it. The Ripple Has Just Begun speaks to the sacred pause before flight, the beauty of rooted joy, and the ceremony of everyday awakening. Here, healing is not a task-it's a rhythm. Truth is not a fight-it's a remembering. And the poet? She is no longer searching for home-she has become it. This collection is an offering for the ones who move gently, fiercely, and without apology through the unfolding of their own light.
