I am a romanticist, a dreamer, a positive thinker. I see the world as a place to flourish and do better. I am sure, we are here to love and to be loved. Love is what I look for in a sea and sky and star. Love is what I look for in all that things that are.

We all need to be reminded of what Almighty God can do. Whether you view this book as songs or “poems”, please let the words into your heart. It's okay to listen and cry, or listen and rejoice. As God gave inspiration for his Gospel songs, may the listeners receive inspiration, also. Whether one listens to songs of praise or songs with a prayer in them, let it stir you.

Aunque sería difícil ponernos de acuerdo, todos compartimos el amor a las palabras, a la sencilla belleza que logran cuando se cuidan, y quizás también al deseo de penetrar la realidad cotidiana, de ver la esencia que hay detrás.

The soldier in the army of Jesus Christ clings to all he’s worth to his master. He knows darkness and he knows failure well. Weakness is his enemy. God turns weakness into strength. Our Lord submitted to abuse and captivity, even to the point of death, to set his captive people free. Seeds of evil bear a bitter fruit.

In Touch the Earth, Drew Jackson continues the project he began in God Speaks Through Wombs, reflecting on the Gospel of Luke through poetry. Touch the Earth picks up in chapter nine and continues through the end of Luke's Gospel. Part protest poetry, part biblical commentary, Jackson presents the gospel story in all its liberative power. Here the gospel is the "fresh words / that speak of / things impossible."

America's first poet, Anne Bradstreet, wrote poems regularly for her family's private enjoyment. But in 1647, unbeknownst to Anne, her brother-in-law set sail for England with a manuscript of her poetry. Upon his return, he presented her book to her: The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America. Anne was thoroughly embarrassed but also pleased. Subsequent generations have valued her gifts as a poet as well, and her poetry remains in print to this day.

A poem about consent.

On the wings of eagles flies his love. Upon their foreheads he puts a sign, each one unique, invisible in design. These, Father, belong to me. Their names shall be written by my blood into the Book of Lamb’s Holy Love. Jezebel, whom Ahab chose to make his queen; did he have any say in that arrangement, anyway? Outside Jezebel is sweet, soft petals, rose red and comfortable in bed. Within her being is a serpent thing. A satanic unction desires to rape and destroy all things good that will not give her power. She serves Baal faithfully week to week, hour to hour.
