SUSAN KIRSCH CREATES
PRAISE POEMS CELEBRATING SIMPLE MOMENTS THAT MAKE LIFE DIVINE
A Small Asterisk, A Big Invitation
In Simply Go*d, the small Asterisk is more than a typographical mark — it’s a gentle pause, a moment of wonder, an opening for whatever the divine means to you. Readers are invited to pronounce the title as God or Good, letting the word land where it feels true. Through brief poems and simple, playful illustrations, the Asterisk becomes a reminder that the sacred often shows up quietly — in a breath, a leaf, a sunrise — waiting to be noticed.
Finding the Extraordinary in Everyday Life
Susan Kirsch is a poet, teacher, gardener, and civic activist who finds the extraordinary woven into ordinary daily life. Rooted in a lifelong practice of curiosity, color, and praise, her Simply Go*d series invites readers into moments of mindfulness, wonder, and the quiet presence of the divine—however they name it. With poems sparked by basil leaves, sunrise hush, and the tug of everyday grace, Susan’s work blends playfulness with depth, offering a gentle reminder that beauty, spirit, and goodness are always close at hand.

An Invitation to Pause, Color, & Appreciate
The Simply Go*d series invites readers to notice the extraordinary within the ordinary. Blending mindfulness with creativity, each praise poem grows from a simple practice: beginning the day with a one-page coloring to quiet the inner critic, followed by a one-page reflection of appreciation. Whether celebrating life’s bright moments or steadying oneself through uncertainty, this series offers a gentle, joyful way to reconnect with gratitude, presence, and awe.
