The poet Motschi von Richthofen started to write at the age of 11, when her grandfather died. In her early 20s she discovered her love and talent for poetry. During her travels through Europe, Caribbean Islands, Israel, South Africa and Russia she tried to reflect her experiences by composing words in German and English.
Alexandra demonstrated artistic talent at a young age, writing poetry, but from the first grade she began to grow increasingly bored with her studies. Her earliest literary efforts were romantic, conscientiously modeled on German poets like Rilke, Goethe and Hesse and English poets such as Burns, Blake, and Wilde. While still in her youth, she also made the acquaintance of two individuals who would play an important role in her future: a Greek poet Costa Vretto and an Israeli painter David Beaucaire. Both flourished her character and supported her talent in writing.
She always tries to understand human nature and why this species still act like underdeveloped creatures. Philosophers like Socrates, Seneca and Kant just to name some, gave her a slide understanding of the never-ending need to enchanter life with beauty and happiness. Her main aim is to reveal the epoch and all the timeless emotions we humans have got.
The poems are mainly about nature, politics, society and love. Just like a human being, the poems send all kinds of signals with the sound of words and open up new worlds of understanding. Paintings with ink.
