A Poem For Today - I thank you deep power

[KDick...@aol.com]

I thank you, deep power

that works me ever more lightly

in ways I can't make out

The day's labor grows simple now,

and like a holy face

held in my dark hands

 

Rainer Maria Rilke

from the Book of Hours

Translated by Anita Barrows and Joanna Macy

 

[Karen Rohn]

Rilke always has this exact closeness with those minute and enormous subtleties. He and Mary Oliver ....only gratitude.

Enough to make me want to be some rich woman's Castle poet.
