This Is Not About Poems

Diana Button

Diana Button's poetry invites readers to meet the depth of their own nature and rekindle a sense of connection with themselves, the Earth, and something deeper. At the heart of her writing lives the enduring question: Who am I? With a voice that is both playful and profound, she writes with clarity that resists simplicity, always grounded in ethical and emotional awareness.

She is the author of Wakes of Joy (2025), Welle der Freude (2025), From Pen(elope) with Love xxx (2020), and Marrying It All (2003), with work featured in Writing from a Small Country and D'Waasser am Mond (2004). Born in the UK to a British father and German mother, she now lives in Germany with her husband of thirty-five years. Her poetry is nourished by nature, family, the voices of poets, philosophers, and spiritual teachers, particularly Gangaji and the lineage of self-inquiry passed down from Ramana Maharshi.
