Saloni Shah is a poet, storyteller, and listener based in Adelaide, Australia.
Born and raised in Palanpur, India, she has been writing since childhood, drawn to the quiet stories hidden within everyday life. Shaped by family, migration, education, and a career in technology, her poetry explores silence, memory, belonging, compassion, and becoming.
She is fascinated by the way small, often-overlooked moments linger in the heart and reveal deeper truths, and her work listens closely to the spaces between speech and silence.
Listening Silences is her first poetry collection.
