Perhaps I most need spiritual poems---heartfelt and exquisitely chosen words from inspired writers and elevated souls.... I need it because it's so easy for me to write too many words.....they come easy and flow but that's no excuse.....
....My second most helpful reflection book (after Mark Nepo's
Book of Awakening is Daniel Ladinsky's compilation of
Love Poems from God ~ Twelve Sacred Voices from the East and Westhttp://books.google.com/books/about/Love_poems_fro...
One poem I read today helped me again.....I include it here.
Light and Love, in helping us not just do something, but stand there..............Ken.

A Wedding Gift
I hear you singing, dear, inviting me to your limb.
I am coming, for all that we do is a
preparation for
love.
I hear you singing, my Lord, inviting me to your throne.
We are comning, dear, for all the toil you have
blessed us with
is a preparation to know and hold the
sacred.
I hear you singing, my soul, but how can it be that
God's voice has now become
my own?
"This is just a wedding gift for our
Divine Union,"
my Beloved
said.
~ St. Francis of Assisi
