April is National Poetry month. As we at Cranaleith accompany you through these anguishing days to the peace of Easter, we’d like toperiodicallyoffer you some poems to carry our presence and our prayer to you.
Do you have a favorite poem you’d like to share that might touch someone else as it has graced you? Please send it to us at[email protected].We’ll try to make some of them available so we can weave your spirits in blessing and support.

We begin by offering a poem from the children’s bookA Poem That Heals Fishby Jean-Pierre Simeon.

A poem
is when you have the sky in your mouth.
It is hot like fresh bread,
when you eat it,
a little is always left over.
A poem
is when you hear
the heartbeat of a stone,
when words beat their wings.
It is a song sung in a cage.
A poem
is words turned upside down
and suddenly!
the world is new.

The Paschal Mystery: Living the Resurrection
(Easter season virtual)
Wednesday, May 6, 2020
How are we to understand the suffering in our lives? Are these periods in which God simply abandons us? We look to the suffering, death and resurrection of Jesus for a pattern, a way through. St. Paul tells us that Jesus is the firstborn of the dead; we too will die and rise. Most Christians think this only applies to the end of their physical life, but God wants us to know that this pattern of dying and rising is part of everyday Christian living. Learn to be a person of hope. More information and registration to come.
