The word 'angel' means 'messenger' and the title poem of this book, 'Angels Everywhere,' presents the idea that what I often glimpse is a flicker of glancing light, as if a heavenly being is darting in and out of my viewing, allowing me entry into a realm beyond my physical, experiential world—brief revelatory messages from somewhere beyond. I'm hoping that as you read these poems, (more than once, aloud if possible) something like Wordsworth's 'intimations of immortality' will enliven your own perceptions of the world as you experience it. Maybe your own fleet of angels will show up!

What is blurred vision? Is it merely a physical condition, or does it extend to matters of the heart? For Judy Kirby, author of a poignant collection of poems and writings spanning a decade, these questions have defined her life's journey. At the age of 20, Judy's path turned unexpectedly when she was diagnosed with Stargardt's Macular Degeneration. This condition gradually robbed her of the ability to see faces and navigate the world as she once did. The promising future ahead of her, including a college degree in computer programming and accounting, suddenly seemed uncertain

“Siempre que haya un hueco en tu vida, llénalo de amor, pues el amor lleva en sí su plenitud”. De esta reflexión del gran poeta mexicano Amado Nervo nace el título e este audiolibro extraordinario, a caballo entre la poesía más refinada y la llamada literatura de autosuperación o autoayuda.

Gateway to More of Him was written for the hungry heart and for those who want God’s word to come alive and are crying out for a deeper walk with him. Centered around his word, these poems tell a story of our need for more of him. Always challenging our hearts not to be lukewarm and our hands to keep them tight on the plow, not looking back. Realizing God’s plan for every believer is to be conformed to the image of his son.

Cushioned with love and tenderness, breakout poet Billy Chapata escorts listeners through the oftentimes coarse path back to self-love in his latest collection of poetry, Velvet Dragonflies. This collection is divided into five sections—“Viscose,” “Koigu,” “Damask,” “Charmeuse,” and “Landing”—with each section representing the evolving softness that is found when true, deep self-respect and acceptance is rediscovered. Much like his two previous works, Chapata writes words that will echo around listeners’ minds long after the final sentence.

In a distant, timeless place, a mysterious prophet walks the sands. At the moment of his departure, he wishes to offer the people gifts but possesses nothing. The people gather round, each asks a question of the heart, and the man's wisdom is his gift. It is Gibran's gift to us, as well, for Gibran's prophet is rivaled in his wisdom only by the founders of the world's great religions. On the most basic topics - marriage, children, friendship, work, pleasure - his words have a power and lucidity that in another era would surely have provoked the description "divinely inspired".

Mattie Stepanek's fourth collection of poetry is a joyful "thank you" for life.

From Calvin Arsenia, one of Kansas City’s most exciting singers, comes a debut book of poetry and prose: Every Good Boy Does Fine. Named for the classic mnemonic used to teach the lines of the treble clef (EGBDF), his collection speaks to his passion as a musician and also his deep and tumultuous history in the Evangelical community. Arsenia includes elements of queer poetry, writings on racial awakening, Christian de-conversion, and sexual awakenings in a homophobic community with the hopes that listeners will feel ready to start their own journey of self-expression.

For my way of thinking, the work of a poet is the result of a gift. This is especially true of a poet who writes poetry of faith. Robert H. Siegel of Maine, USA, is a man with a gift. He is also a man who writes poetry that reflects his faith while writing about God's creatures, animals and such, in a lovely way that a naturalist can love. So I believe.

“Birdsongs is a 75-poem collection of works divided into four topics: lament, tribute, food & nature, and ascent. Like a symphonic piece, the collection starts in the pit of the valley and crescendos to lofty heights.The collection starts from a place of darkness, distress, and anguish, encapsulating difficult experiences, including physical and emotional pain, as well as the grief caused by love, loss, and the coronavirus pandemic of 2020.Moving into poems of tribute and the delights found in food and nature, the collection begins to shift toward love and hopefulness in the joys found in...
