milky way
A torn cowgirl boot becomes a portal to the soul in this surreal illustrated poem where tiny creatures emerge, golden paisley waterfalls cascade, and the Milky Way becomes armor. Blending Western folklore with cosmic symbolism, the poem reflects on how our souls evolve through the people we love, the experiences we survive, and the freedom found when our true selves are finally released.
growth
A contemplative poem about growing into yourself rather than growing upward, learning to slow down, listen, and embrace life’s lighter truths. Illustrated and written by The Ivory Rose.
