Poems Like Warm Wine

Many people are like me--we have some very good friends who we've never met in person. Something happens and the conventionally abnormal distancing that the Internet can instill is warmed way up and a true friendship blossoms.

This is what happened with Anna...

I'm a poet and she's a poet. She's young and I'm old. We're both religious (in "different" Faiths). And, we're both "weird"...

Not so long ago, I was blessed by technology. There, in my e-mail, was a link to an audio file of Anna Saying one of her poems!

I get nice chills just remembering the sound of her voice mingling with the meaning of the words...

So, prepare to be positively Enchanted...

Turn up your volume and relax into the magic of Anna's poetry...

Oneness of Humanity


Yesterday I posted about a good friend's comment merging with current events and my past history and politics and a few other things...

Today that friend sent a link to their blog (image over there on the left) that had a link to a poem they'd written about Oneness, plus a link to my post of yesterday.
Right after I'd set myself up to write this post, I quickly checked my e-mail and found the prayer, We Are One, from BeliefNet.
As if that weren't enough to weave the web of synchronicity ever tighter, right after I wrote about that BeliefNet prayer, I checked my e-mail again and found another post from the same friend saying they'd gotten a response to a Google alert which they really didn't want; but, then, they said: "Weird, so I figure its "for" you?"

I hadn't yet told them I was crafting a blog post around their blog post (about my previous blog post...) so the topic of the alert link was astonishing--the exact opposite of Our Human Oneness: Persecution !

Sometimes the rhythm of events seems to underlie the music of the Spheres...
