Who knows
what key today will
unlock the magic door
– that unseeing of the naked
eye containing the day’s mystery –
just a wrinkle in time – the tesseract
in which the portal of imagination
magically opens us to reality
to know as we are known
to see as we are seen
in a glass darkly
“the heron, unseen for weeks, came flying
widewinged toward me, settled
just offshore on his post,
took up his vigil.
If you ask
why this cleared a fog from my spirit,
I have no answer.” ~ Denise Levertov

Yes, I agree . . . It was a family night ‘read’ when our kids were young: a good book to read out`loud! Have you read her ‘A Severed Wasp’? Not so much for kids but for grumps like us . . .

You’re an avid reader, Maureen! You would like Madeleine L’Engle’s ‘A Wrinkle in Time’ . . . She is an Anglican and a very bright Christian woman . . . Her book ‘A Severed Wasp’ is a powerful critique of life in and around a huge Episcopal cathedral in NYC – Maybe St Paul’s . . . It’s been a while since I read it . . .
