Christian Poets

A space (not a "corner") for poets of Christian persuasion to share their work. Drop me a line and I'll add you as a contributor.

— but I am out of love with words

That contradict our hopes.

—Agamemnon, "Aeschylus"

So heard we floods of words designed to veer

Our eyes from rooted hopes, our hearts from home;

To distance from our minds what hovers near,

Deceive our sense of truth with an empty sum.

Blessed and strong is he whose ears are deaf

To garrulous thieves who'd steal our treasured worth;

Lose not your precious faith in the tumbling surf,

Cast anchors up above the heaving earth.
