On Earth and In Heaven

From the spiritual to the earthly, On Earth and In Heaven captures life's special moments in verse. Whether "Beckoning the HOLY SPIRIT"; performing daily tasks like "swinging lettuce dry"; praying to reach down into earthen serenity like the roots of the "Tree by the Waters"; being with the half-moon holding glowing beauty in her cupped hands on Christmas Eve at midnight; or celebrating the beauty of the heavens and the Milky Way while dancing back from Compline at the Monastery of Christ in the Desert-for Gretchen, life is "a serendipity when images without and feelings within begin to know each other."
