Poetry seems the perfect form to speak to God and to allow Him to express Himself through me.
In this folder, are my poetic efforts in this regard.

"Without the assistance of that Divine Being ... I cannot succeed. With that assistance, I cannot fail."
ABRAHAM LINCOLN, speech, Feb. 11, 1861

"Giving yourself up to love is melting into God. It is falling into the hands of the living God with complete abandon. This is the deep, interior prayer for which we have been striving. Here we must let go of our dependency on thoughts, words, and images. We go into the beautiful darkness. We stop struggling. We let the angels carry us. Surrender is the only word we know."
MACRINA WIEDERKEHR, A Tree Full of Angels
