DONNA "Celestial Dancer" KIRVEN





Donna Kirven, better known in the poetry world as “Celestial Dancer,” was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pa., but currently lives in Northern California with her husband and two daughters. Coping with life through love, laughter, music and her passion for writing she has found a way to combine the beautiful arts of poetry and music and invites the world to share the joyous blend.. She has written poetry since age 10, and had her first poem published in her high school newspaper. Donna attended Temple University, and is currently a master’s candidate in organizational psychology. Her first book, When a Band-Aid Isn't Enough, and other poetic perspectives was released in February 2005, and offers a eclectic compilation of traditional and non-traditional poetry that provokes soul deep images of any given moment in time, ones that we all, or someone close to us, have experienced but often have been unwilling or unable to express.

In addition to her career as a medical laboratory educator, Donna has extended her passion for writing to the professional arena and for the past six years has written as a dedicated columnist and editorial consultant for Advance@ Magazine for Medical Laboratory Professionals.

Her second book, The Alchemy of Understanding: Poetic Soul Therapy, will be released in a few weeks and offers more poetic word paintings of the magical and mystical moods, motives and making of understanding between us. Check out her web pages;

In holding fast to the fleeting preciousness of life, Donna reflects through her poetry echoes of her mantra, “Keep your head up, your heart full and your mind moving.”
