Holy Poetry

Poetry in the key of spirituality.

Dear Reader,

My vocation is to write poetry in the key of spirituality. I offer these poems with the hope that they will bring you hope and we can build a community of poetry lovers who live lives of loving kindness.

Each Saturday I will post an original poem inspired by passage of Christian scripture.

Each Wednesday I will post a new poem with a spiritual slant.  

The weekend scripture passages will come from the common lectionary readings used in many churches.

I hope I will open a window for you with a the freshening  breeze of the Spirit blowing through.

You are invited to be a founding member. Consider making a donation which will help me support myself as a contributing member of the poetry community.  

Here’s my first video Holi Poem, My Moron’s Misery.

For when I am weak, then I am strong.	2 Corinthians 12:10

My Moron’s Misery

No matter how scrupulous I am
I can’t seem to stay out of stupid. 
My spirit screams, “Medic!”

I need to hear a healing story 
to fix my moron’s misery.
I need a soul emetic. 

Is all this mess just some kind of a test?
St. Paul writes the only solution 
is turn from the abyss

dance like a dervish,
celebrate my weakness
and trust in divine guidance?
