The Day Belongs to Faith & God, poem by Peter Menkin
by Peter Menkin Feb 12, 2001 By Peter Menkin, Obl Cam OSB This morning's rain and rising cried for a short walk allowing the day then to belong to my life and many lives in faith. A lightening of affliction, a respite to pain and sorrow, a living in the body, along the way to breathe clean air and know mortality during time spent on the path; come back to me my sanity of rightness giving in to the many colors of pain and weakness: finitude. Peter Menkin, an aspiring poet, lives in Mill Valley, CA USA where he writes poetry. He is an Oblate of Immaculate Heart Hermitage, Big Sur, CA and that means he is a Camaldoli Benedictine. He is 64 years of age as of 2010. Copyright Peter Menkin http://www.petermenkin.blogspot.com Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
