My Womanifesto

Bliss Ripple is a catalog of clues— fieldnotes for living into one’s internal bliss. Compiled through the creative works of poet, artist, musician, and mama Maggie A. Bishop, Bliss Ripple explores the idea of resounding joy— how to create it and expand it through living with passionate honesty.

Here you will find poems, songs, and observations written under the influence of inspiration Maggie finds scuttling and searching amidst the varied Missouri landscape with her wonder-son, adventurer Arlo, and her artist-partner and dream confidant Josh (who is also a photographer and music promoter).

i wish i could say more.

hello, and here i am.
empty and full,
completely at the same
time.
and time, a solicitous lover--
giving and taking before you notice,
the coming of the day, or
the falling of the night,
has left me bewildered--
by her unsteady praise.
welcome, and here i am.
answered, but, moreover
questioned.
by the tides that rise
and fall by the moon,
who leaves me fulfilled,
yet wanting.
