Book Description
My name is John Adolphus Hodge, a friend of God, born in the pictorial, beautiful and musical- uncommon-guitar-shaped Island of St. Kitts/ St. Christopher, which is known to the world as The Land of Beauty and Sweet Sugar City of the Caribbean. Few years ago I migrated to the United Kingdom where I am still living. I am the third child of eight children, born to two blessed loving parents Mrs. Dolly Agatha Henrietta Hodge and Mr. Wilfred Adolphus Hodge, who were both born in the beautiful Island of St. Kitts/ St. Christopher, Leeward Island, West Indies. I am blessed, being the first male born to my mother according to Gods holy written word, which can be found in the Gospel of St. Luke: ch; 2 v 23. As it is written in the law of the LORD, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the LORD

Can someone really be saved by a poem? In Kim Rosen’s book, the answer is a resounding "Yes!"

ISBN: 1101908254
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
A remarkable Pocket Poets anthology of poems from around the world and across the centuries about illness and healing, both physical and spiritual. From ancient Greece and Rome up to the present moment, poets have responded with sensitivity and insight to the troubles of the human body and mind. Poems of Healing gathers a treasury of such poems, tracing the many possible journeys of physical and spiritual illness, injury, and recovery, from John Donne’s “Hymne to God My God, In My Sicknesse” and Emily Dickinson’s “The Soul has Bandaged moments” to Eavan Boland’s “Anorexic,” from W.H. Auden’s “Miss Gee” to Lucille Clifton’s “Cancer,” and from D.H.

Messages of hope in the midst of pain—in such moving poems as Adam Zagajewski’s “Try to Praise the Mutilated World,” George Herbert’s “The Flower,” Wisława Szymborska’s “The End and the Beginning,” Gwendolyn Brooks’ “when you have forgotten Sunday: the love story” and Stevie Smith’s “Away, Melancholy”—make this the perfect gift to accompany anyone on a journey of healing.

How Lovely the Ruins
Author: Annie Chagnot
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 0399592857
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
This wide-ranging collection of inspirational poetry and prose offers readers solace, perspective, and the courage to persevere. In times of personal hardship or collective anxiety, words have the power to provide comfort, meaning, and hope. The past year has seen a resurgence of poetry and inspiring quotes—posted on social media, appearing on bestseller lists, shared from friend to friend. Honoring this communal spirit, How Lovely the Ruins is a timeless collection of both classic and contemporary poetry and short prose that can be of help in difficult times—selections that offer wisdom and purpose, and that allow us to step out of our current moment to gain a new perspective on the world around us as well as the world within. The poets and writers featured in this book represent the diversity of our country as well as voices beyond our borders, including Maya Angelou, W. H. Auden, Danez Smith, Rumi, Emily Dickinson, Naomi Shihab Nye, Alice Walker, Adam Zagajewski, Langston Hughes, Wendell Berry, Anna Akhmatova, Yehuda Amichai, and Robert Frost. And the book opens with a stunning foreword by Elizabeth Alexander, whose poem “Praise Song for the Day,” delivered at the inauguration of President Barack Obama, ushered in an era of optimism. In works celebrating our capacity for compassion, our patriotism, our right to protest, and our ability to persevere, How Lovely the Ruins is a beacon that illuminates our shared humanity, allowing us connection in a fractured world. Includes poetry, prose, and quotations from: Elizabeth Alexander • Marcus Aurelius • Karen Armstrong • Matthew Arnold • Ellen Bass • Brian Bilston • Gwendolyn Brooks • Elizabeth Barrett Browning • Octavia E. Butler • Regie Cabico • Dinos Christianopoulos • Lucille Clifton • Ta-Nehisi Coates • Leonard Cohen • Wendy Cope • E. E.
