A couple of poetry books I've been reading and can recommend; the first is an anthology of sacred poetry from world faiths and the second is a translation of poems written by the Buddhist monk, Stonehouse.
The Longing in Between, a Poetry Chaikhana anthology -
Sacred poetry from around the world edited with commentary by Ivan M. Granger
The Mountain Poems of Stonehouse -
translation and commentary by Red Pine
(Glastonbury Tor, Somerset)
To mark the Winter Solstice, I visited the Chalice Well Gardens in Glastonbury today and picked up a leaflet by Wellesley Tudor Pole called 'God is Love' and was immediately drawn to a particular phrase:
'The more love we reflect and share with one another, the greater will be the supply available to us: a supply that is infinite, boundless, never failing and eternal.'
From God is Love by Wellesley Tudor Pole.
I visited St Non's Well and Chapel recently, I hope these photographs will give a sense of the place.
You can find out more about St. Non (the mother of St David, the patron saint of Wales) here.
