Croft of Light

"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.

MANDATORY PSALM

MANDATORY PSALM

There has to be Atonement
More infinite than death –
There has to be Redemption
More definite than breath.

There has to be Revival
More meaningful than pain –
There has to be Salvation
More bountiful than gain.
