Leeming silently reflects through free verse poetry, a stream of consciousness dialogue around belonging, loss and connection to home, saying silence is as important as the work. Walking, meditating, praying, and listening connect her internal landscapes and memories residing beyond awareness. Leeming sits in the present, in the land that is now home. Her intuitive, meditative works merge memory and experience, expressing a deep connection to land and revealing the unseen aspects of her inner world.
HIKOI: Ever seeking
Ever seeking
truth defying
internal conflicts
eternally conflicted
burn offs linger
heavens press down
morning glory
heaviness lifting
in the presence of trees
