ABROAD PSALM
Our lives are intertwined
No matter where we go –
The interstice of circumstance
Connects the roots below.
Our times are co-aligned
In spite of distances –
Coordinates of memory
Above resistances.
(26 August 2010, Provo, Utah)
"Croft of Light" is a forum for poetry, photography, and philology (the love of language). With Emily Dickinson as a tutor, Dag Hammarskjold as a mentor, and Noah Webster as a teacher, I hope to express light through lyric verse. Many of the texts are psalms, meant for musical accompaniment. My style favors simplicity and sincerity. My voice can be comic or serious. My tone may be innocent or ironic. Some of the pieces are just for practice. Respectful responses and comments are welcome.
