Tess McKevitt is a multi-published Irish poet from Mullingar, County Westmeath.
Her debut poetry collection, A Note in Passing, was launched in spring 2021 and introduced readers to a voice rooted in reflection, feeling and close attention to the world around her.
Tess’s poetry explores a wide range of themes, including intimacy, nature, hope, memory and the emotional landscapes that shape everyday life.
Her work offers readers both stillness and discovery, creating space to find themselves, lose themselves and reconnect with the quiet power of language.
Drawing inspiration from Ireland’s people, places, folklore and natural beauty, she writes with warmth, sensitivity and a strong lyrical instinct.
As a contemporary midlands poet, Tess continues to build a body of work that is personal, accessible and deeply connected to the human experience.
