Reminiscent of Malcolm Guite’s bestselling Sounding the Seasons,
this beautiful collection offers scripture-inspired poems for each of
the major seasons of the Christian year. It includes:• The Call to
Prayer (with poetry on the nature of prayer);• Advent, Christmas and
Epiphany;• Lent, Easter and Pentecost (including Wings of Wounded
Glory, a sequence for Holy Week);• Transforming Ordinary Time
(including some feasts which fall outside the major seasons);• In
the School of Mary (poetic reflections on Mary, see as a model for
prayer, contemplation and prophecy).An introduction considers the
relationship between prayer and poetry and offers suggestions for
using the book in public and private worship settings, and a closing
sequence contemplates Mary as a figure of prayers and witness.
