Victoria Polmatier, Writer and Poet

Victoria Polmatier writes about the intersection between connecting with nature, the inherent pain of being human, and finding the sacred every day.

She believes there is light and goodness within the darkness if we allow ourselves to find it. She came to this belief as she worked through her own pain of loss and change. We can all rise above the pain.

Victoria wrote and published a book of poetry, Surviving Suicide: One Mother's Journey to Acceptance After Her Son's Death. She has been a blogger since 2006 and the body of her work is here on this site.

Victoria works with her husband in their business and in her spare time can be found in the garden or wandering near the woods, listening to the birds or watching the deer.

"I hope you find inspiration, consolation, and perhaps a bit of humor in the words here."

Welcome

I've been writing blogs on the internet since 2007. Like my life, my words have wandered from Wisdom or Life Lessons and Wellness, to Gardening and Aquaponics. After my son’s death by suicide in 2016, Poetry became a big piece of my world as I tried to make sense of the tragedy of his death.

In truth, his death took me into my own journey with darkness. I've shared a bit during the last ten years but nothing in comparison to what I've written. Only recently have I started to climb back into life and the desire to share my writing.

These days, my writing is varied and inspired by the moment. I participate in two writing group, one where we write to prompts from a book by Judy Reeves called A Writer’s Book of Days: A Spirited Companion and the other where we journey and then write about our experience or about the wisdom gained. Much of this writing is buried in journals in my office. As I move forward, Some of that will be found under Stories, Magic and the Mystical.
