In the Midst: Praying with Poetry

A poem begins as a lump in the throat...A complete poem is one where an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found its words. -Robert Frost There are times precious gracious times when the world around me arouses the poet from her slumber; when the written word becomes manna for my day; when inspiration reminds me that I am not alone. All I can do is respond with an alleluia crowned with gratitude. All is invitation from that Power greater than myself whom I experience as God-PaPa Brother and Spirit-Companion.
