Emotional Alchemy by KP Heyming

By League of Canadian Poets | September 2, 2022

Poet name: KP Heyming Poem name: Emotional Alchemy Poem: I love her laugh. It had emotional alchemy; it made bad things better and good things gold. End of poem. Credits and bio: The city of Greater Sudbury’s 7th Poet Laureate, Kyla Heyming (KPH) is a bilingual Canadian writer with a yearning to set her soul in ink and paper, with the help of her typewriter. Author of For Those I Have Loved, her poetry and non-fiction have appeared in a number of arts and literature journals, including the League of Canadian Poets’ “Poetry Pause”. Fiercely driven to ensnare all of life’s little moments, she works tirelessly for her passion so that she may someday lead others to find their own meaning in her words.
