My first poem in English was a translation of my own poem from Russian. Then I began translating Russian romances into English. I used to study in a vocal studio and took part in many concerts. Russian romances were the largest part of my repertoire.I was eager to know how they would sound in English and was happy to get my friends comments telling me that they were beautiful. That was the start.
I’ve been writing poetry for about 15 years. Today I have more than 400 of them.
I was The Golden Pen Award winner with the poems "Disappearing Generation" and " A Voice From The Wildness".
I am so much grateful to all those who inspired me to write not only more but much better.
Some people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there: to teach you lessons, to help you to figure out who you are or who you want to become...You would never realize your potential, strength, willpower or heart if it were not for them. I am grateful to Lord
who presented me with unique friends from different countries. They effected my life, they showed me the way to the beauty of a real poetry. They helped me to believe in myself.
I began to write poems in English in 2010. I enjoy writing poems. I write about anything: nature, love, life, humor, …. I sometimes write stories in Russian and then translate them into English. I have poet friends all over the world. They are from the USA, Canada, Great Britain, India, Ireland, Australia ...
