Unto His listening ear Pour out thy broken plaint, and soon, how soon, ' The wail of woe will change to joy's sweet tune! A little while, and then shall pass away The veil that shrouds His beauty, and the day Dawn in the cloudless morning ne'er to cease; For light is sown for thee, and joy and peace Laid up for those who love the Father's will. Peace, troubled heart! Hush, murmuring lips! Be still! THE LOST CHERITH. "He drank of the brook. And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up."--I Kings xvii. 6, 7. 1 HOU hast but claimed Thine own; Lord, I surrender Thy precious loan, for I would do Thy will; Let me not doubt Thy love so true and tender, Say to my quivering heart-strings, "Peace, be still." Christ! Priest and King! In yon bright realm of glory Thou bear'st a brother's sympathy for woe; And 'mid the songs of seraphs rise before Thee The broken prayers--the sighs I breathe below. Thou heard'st my cry when sore athirst and weary, And on my path in pity cast Thine eyes; Then in the arid waste, all parched and dreary, Thou bad'st for me a bubbling streamlet rise. "Drink," Lord, Thou saidst: and I in mute thanks-giving Drank of the stream that by the wayside burst, Sweet drops of love from Thy deep fount upspringing, That soothed my weariness and quenched my thirst. Now at Thy word dries up my pleasant Cherith, Oh let me not in selfish grief repine; Only Thy voice my mourning spirit heareth, Thou hast not taken mine, O Lord, but Thine. "Nay, thine and Mine!" (thus came a whisper stealing On my sad heart, and tenderly it fell;) "That spring of joy I sent, my love revealing, And its deep secret, thou must ponder well. "'Tis Mine and thine: it was my...
Download or read book Still Possible written by David Whyte and published by Many Rivers Press. This book was released on 2021-12 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems in Still Possible pay homage to the invisible passage of time - the deep, private current that wends through our lives as a steadfast companion, sculpting our interior worlds as inexorably and exquisitely as its visible manifestations. Whyte turns his eye, and his pen, to the possibilities and harvests this shaping reveals: the shyness and vulnerability of love, the illusion of imperfection, and the new invitations that beckon along the way. The poems reflect an abiding faith in time's wisdom: a journey turned away from in youth waits patiently for later maturity; an early experience ripens in secret to reveal, decades later, a full understanding. Under Whyte's poet-philosopher gaze, a rain-soaked day in an Irish farmhouse becomes a meditation on the essence of a truly good day: a settled contentment, alert and open to whatever may call. Plus, sheep, Seamus Heaney and a dog. Powerful language rests on a foundationof what isn't said, a silence underpinning the eloquence of articulation. In this way, Still Possible hovers above the numinous and the unknowable - what we pray for, what we pass on, what mystery awaits and, in the end, what it might mean to be happy.

Download or read book Native Guard enhanced Audio Edition written by Natasha Trethewey and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2012-08-28 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Included in this audio-enhanced edition are recordings of the U.S. Poet Laureate Natasha Trethewey reading Native Guard in its entirety, as well as an interview with the poet from the HMH podcast The Poetic Voice, in which she recounts what it was like to grow up in the South as the daughter of a white father and a black mother and describes other influences that inspired the work. Experience this Pulitzer Prize–winning collection in an engaging new way. Growing up in the Deep South, Natasha Trethewey was never told that in her hometown of Gulfport, Mississippi, black soldiers had played a pivotal role in the Civil War. Off the coast, on Ship Island, stood a fort that had once been a Union prison housing Confederate captives. Protecting the fort was the second regiment of the Louisiana Native Guards -- one of the Union's first official black units. Trethewey's new book of poems pays homage to the soldiers who served and whose voices have echoed through her own life. The title poem imagines the life of a former slave stationed at the fort, who is charged with writing letters home for the illiterate or invalid POWs and his fellow soldiers. Just as he becomes the guard of Ship Island's memory, so Trethewey recalls her own childhood as the daughter of a black woman and a white man. Her parents' marriage was still illegal in 1966 Mississippi. The racial legacy of the Civil War echoes through elegiac poems that honor her own mother and the forgotten history of her native South. Native Guard is haunted by the intersection of national and personal experience.
Download or read book Love Remember written by Malcolm Guite and published by Canterbury Press. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling poet Malcolm Guite chooses forty poems from across the centuries that express the universal experience of loss and reflects on them in order to draw out the comfort, understanding and hope they offer. Some of the poems will be familiar, many will be new, but together they provide a sure companion for the journey across difficult terrain. Some of Malcolm’s own poetry is included, written out of his work as a priest with the dying and the bereaved and giving to the volume a powerful authenticity. The choice of forty poems is significant and reflects an ancient practice still observed in some European and Middle Eastern societies of taking extra-special care of a bereaved person in the forty days following a death – our word quarantine come from this. They explore the nature and the risk of love, the pain of letting go and look toward glimpses of resurrection.
Download or read book Pilgrimage Poems written by Randy Stoltz and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-12-30 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book of poems is the fruit of many years of struggle and difficulties. It is the beginning of seeing life lived from a deeper place of singleness of heart, life in union with Christ. “The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is sound, (simple, single) your whole body will be full of light, ( Matthew 6:22). If you suffer the feelings and emotions of separation with all the anxiety and fears that accompany that alienation, (that all have experienced), then read along and experience the same fear, anguish, comfort, joy and wonder the author felt that inspired him to write these poems. The psalmist says, “For thou art great and doest wondrous things, thou alone are God. Teach me thy way, O Lord, that I may walk in the truth, unite my heart to fear the name, (Psalm 86:10-11). It is a wonderful experience to journey from the landscapes of a divided heart to those of a united one. Come outdoors for a walk!
