Overview
A posthumous collection of poems on the beauty of the seasons, creation, life and death, from beloved poet and theologian Catherine de Vinck.From the foreword:
"Catherine de Vinck’s poetry arises from the radiance of the world. Her spiritual journey is distilled here into penetrating insights that speak from heart to heart. These poems will inspire many and endure well beyond her passing. For they are an antidote to the sorrows of our time, illustrating again and again that the creative resilience of life endures. . . . Catherine celebrates our participation in the continuity of being - from the smallest atom to the largest star. This is what gives her work vitality in the face of loss and decay. She has steeped herself in the sensuous beauty of Earth and drawn in the vibrant powers of the cosmos so that we, too, can abide in reverence and embrace renewal." —Mary Evelyn Tucker
