True to You
This week’s poem is Hinterhof by James Fenton and I have chosen it for Kelly and Scott, who got married last weekend and very kindly invited me to join their celebrations.
My Noon, My Midnight, My Talk, My Song
This week I have chosen Funeral Blues by W.H. Auden to mark the funeral of a dearly loved member of the family.
The Arches of the Years
This week’s choice is “The Hound of Heaven” by Francis Thompson.
It is a great poem, written by a man who plumbed the depths of Victorian England and chronicles his struggles with, and discovery of, God’s love.

This week’s choice is Meeting at Night, by Robert Browning. It marks what would have been our 19th wedding anniversary.

This week’s choice by George Herbert celebrates Valentine’s Day which falls this week.
Always There
This week’s choice is “Rainbows” by Kahlil Gibran.
Friends Like These
