Email: Niri

Niri Maharaj was born in Trinidad where she taught high school science before immigrating to Toronto in 1994. Writing poetry emerged late in her life. 

Niri’s unique, abrupt poetry is a swirling potion combining a dash of science, a pinch of turbulent trouble and a deep respect for and appreciation of nature.
