I am the silent brush of an owl’s wing...
I am the peculiar reassurance found in the mew of a watchful night bird… I am the lemon light in a baby’s laughter, the same beacon caught inside a tear of sea glass... I am the slender thread that lassoes two hearts that love… When a young boy grieves-- it is my hand that returns the lost toy… I am the why and how in a very, very old man’s reverie… I am the flint that strikes against the edge of a star and the imagination. I am the one who knew you long before you ever called out my name.

Lovely poem, engaging imagery. 12/1/2014 12:26:33 am
As a practicing Catholic (do we ever get perfect?) I relate to and applaud the content of your new site, referred to me by a mutual friend of ours named Tony. I agree with the commenter who said that the type is too hard to read against your photo backgrounds. If you keep the images, I would suggest somehow softening them (screening?) so that your type stands out sharp and clear. Congratulations and God bless. 12/2/2014 05:41:00 am
Richard: I am working on the type and photo background issue. Thanks for your suggestion. See today's blog bit: On "The Catholic 'Man-Crisis'"

This poem is absolutely beautiful. God surrounds us with His presence and His beauty. I read your blogs backwards from most current to least and the part about capitalizing pronouns referring to God reminded me of my days in the Lutheran parochial school that I attended for grades 1-8. We always did this and I have always wanted to return to that practice. Now I will! Congratulations on your blog. I have decided that I'm reading yours and Father Barron's for all of Advent. 12/2/2014 05:43:35 am
