Интересно!
Perhaps excruciating pain is G-d's calling card, bc it seems we're moved to prayer through misery more than contentment. Yet no matter why we wish to talk to G-d even move important is this universal desire to have G-d answer back. Without getting too deep into this sensitive subject: There's an old movie, Cool Hand Luke, about a war hero who ends up in a prison work farm. It begins with him using some enormous tool to rip the heads off of parking meters. He looks up into the driving rain and says : "Love me, hate me, anything at all. Just show me that you're up there."
Mr Adam if you please . I just read right now about English poet Gerard Manley Hopkins. He was too Jesuit priest . His poems major themes about nature and religion. Unfortunately his works not published during his lifetime in collected form , until year 1918 , but he influenced many leading 20 th century poets .
A wonderful selection to bring together.
Wonderful. Can't wait to watch 😊
Just love Cosmic Shots:
I just gave my sister a card Sunday and found a quote from Christina Rossetti I added to it. Thanks for perking up my interest a bit more and the time and knowledge you share.
"Spring bursts today,
For love is risen and all the earth's at play."
Wonderful!
Thank you mr Adam for your wonderful cultural literary channel. As always iam gathering information about topics you mentioned briefly here it’s devotional poetry definition is poetry expressing religious worship or prayer . Writers of devotional should be have pure heart . James ( 3: 8 - 11) with humanity, graciousness, spiritual sensitivity, you can create something that can alter reader thinking and behavior. Famous devotional poets are Barrett browning, tennyson, crossotti . Value of devotional poetry is expresses writer love and worship of something particularly special to them . This often religious, these poems are usually directed toward god . But sometimes devotional poetry is written with secular love in mind . Purpose of spiritual poetry allows people to see reflection of love between god and soul . Characteristics of religious poetry it’s often employs vivid symbolism to convey abstract concepts and evoke sense of author reverence. I hope you like my synopsis. Best wishes for you your dearest ones .
