Here Today, Zen Poetry

Habitation of Honey

Nancy Petrey

Habitation of Honey

Habitation of Honey can be one of the means God uses to prepare the way of the Lord. As John the Baptist in the wilderness ate wild HONEY, he was growing strong in spirit for the day he would recognize the Messiah. He immersed himself in the Word of God, «honey» for his soul, so he could say «Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.» Just so, the Body of Christ should be preparing herself today, «eating the honey» of the Word of God, to be a herald like John the Baptist for...

Poetic Love Essentials

Tabitha Edwards-Walton presents her third book of poetry, deftly applying her skill at painting pictures of our emotions into words. What is love? How does it manifest with children? With whoever is the mother and father in your life? How do we experience it when it is miraculous? When it is tragic? When it is dancing-down-the-street happy or weep-into-our-pillow sad? Maybe Tabitha has put our thoughts and feelings into words.

The Road Not Taken and Other Poems

Robert Frost

The Road Not Taken and Other Poems

Winner of four Pulitzer Prizes for his poetry, Robert Frost is best remembered for his depictions of early 20th century rural New England life and for his command of American colloquial speech. Criticized by some as being out of touch with the Modernist movement in poetry exemplified by contemporaries such as T. S. Eliot and E. E. Cummings, it is probably in fact his adherence to traditionalism that so endeared him to his fans. Literary critic Randall Jarrell described Frost as one of “the...

The Sonnets (Annotated by Henry N. Hudson with an Introduction by Charles Harold Herford)

First published in 1609, “The Sonnets” of William Shakespeare are a collection of 154 loosely connected 14 line poems. Considered by many to be among some of the greatest love poetry ever written much debate surrounds the context of the poetry. It has been suggested that the work may be semi-autobiographical but no real evidence firmly supports this notion. The themes of the poems contained within this volume are varied and include such subjects as the passage of time, love, beauty, and...

The Poem of the Cid

"El Poema de Mio Cid", or «The Poem of the Cid», is the oldest preserved Spanish epic poem, thought to date to before the thirteenth century. The author of the poem is unknown, and there is some debate as to whether it can be attributed to one or many individuals. The story probably began as an oral tradition passed down by generation, recounting the exploits of an exiled soldier during the Spanish Reconquista who regained his honor in battle against the Moorish armies and in conquest of...

Leaves of Grass: The Original 1855 Edition

In response to Ralph Waldo Emerson’s call for the United States to have its own unique poetic voice, Walt Whitman rose to the challenge to create what would ultimately be his most profound work. Taking its title from the colloquial term “grass”, meaning a work of minor value, Whitman’s “Leaves of Grass” is anything but that. Over his lifetime Whitman would continue to expand and revise his most famous work up until his death in 1892. The first edition, which is reproduced here, contained just...
