My name is Kelly Norris Sarno. I began The Poetry of Living in early 2013 as a way of shining the light on inspiring people, events and moments in life.

For many years I’ve had an obsession with magazines. With this long standing obsession, it's been a goal of mine to eventually create an online magazine/blog. I've striven to make this a collaborative effort between many different talents offering a variety of viewpoints. The Poetry of Living continues to evolve and always looks to highlight unique & special aspects of So Cal living with an emphasis on the different people that make it all so. It’s my true belief that if your job involves doing what you truly love, success will find it’s way to your door.
