Gabriëlle Demedts (Wielsbeke, June 11, 1909 – Kortrijk, September 6, 2002) was a Flemish Belgian poet.

In 1934 she wrote her first poems and in 1937 she published her first work "Een gevangene zingt" (The prisoner sings).

As a young child she was struck by Poliomyelitis which has determined the rest of her life.

[4] She wrote, for instance, '’Rustig lied’' (quiet song) [5] and '’Lage tonen'’ (low vibes) [6] after a love break-up of her friend Valentine Declercq, or '’Zomer’' (Summer) [7] when Valentine was severely ill and dying.

Later, she also wrote a poem, '’Ik heb gedaan...'’ (I am done…),[8] when Ernest Constant Declercq, Valentine’s father and a close friend of Gabrielle Demedts’ parents, had died.
