Father Leo’s Daily Meditation


POETRY

“Poetry is the rhythmical creation of beauty in words.”

–Edgar Allan Poe

Language helps us to understand and communicate. Poetry adds the dimension of “shape” and “movement”. Poetry seems to go beyond words and ideas to the very essence of what life is about; it hints at divinity!

When I was drinking, I never understood the art of poetry. Today I use poetry as part of my adventure into meaning and self-knowledge.

So much more is open to me in sobriety, and I am able to appreciate things I never used to comprehend. Poetry is part of “it gets better”.

Help me to seek You through all aspects of art.
