I have just encountered your poetry for the first time today, and I want to thank you for sharing this luminous work on the platform. I am an English prof at a Christian college, so not surprisingly, faith projections in literature are of particular interest to me. Your sensitively wrought portrayal of transformative grace experienced through a recognition that we live in a fallen yet glorious world touches me deeply from both an artistic and a personal perspective.
What a quietly eloquent reminder to become “fluent” in sharing this redemptive message through empathetic understanding and an emptying of self. Truly beautiful!
You are very welcome! I am so encouraged to encounter artists who cultivate a sacramental vision of existence in their work. What courage it must take to pursue such themes in the contemporary poetry world! I look forward to reading other poems by you.
