A Verse Vigil and Selected Poems
The Great Vigil of Easter is an ancient service of the Church that recounts God's promises and acts of mercy to His people in 12 lessons from the Old Testament. These readings point to the fulfillment of God's promises in the sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God. In Part 1 of "A Verse Vigil and Selected Poems," the author begins with the oldest known list of lessons for the Easter Vigil, recasting each narrative in alliterative verse. The Testing of Abraham, Israel Crosses the Red Sea, and The Valley of Dry Bones are among the Bible stories presented. The 12 lessons plus two alliterative canticles climax in a verse rendering of Chrysostom's Paschal Homily, a joyous proclamation of Christ's victorious resurrection. Part 2 of the book contains shorter metrical poems, most of which spring from lessons for Sundays or other feasts in the church year. Several of these poems may be sung as hymns. An alliterative rendering of St. Patrick's Breastplate concludes the book.
Now God Is Flesh: Poems and Pictures for Christmastide
Now God Is Flesh: Poems and Pictures for Christmastide contains ESV Scripture selections from the Gospel According to St. Luke and the Gospel According to St. Matthew, 22 original poems, and 25 full-color paintings from the Western masters. Four longer poems in alliterative verse highlight the events of Luke 1. The book's title is taken from a poem by Robert Southwell.
The Song of Daniel and Selected Poems
The first part of this book retells the Old Testament book of Daniel in alliterative verse, the time-honored form for hero tales. The form may be old, but the modern narrative voice delivers drama and fresh insights as the 12 chapters of Daniel unfold. Reviewers agree that this 57-page poem should be read aloud for greatest impact. Part 2 of the volume contains shorter metrical poems that are meditations on the Christian faith. Many are based on New Testament stories; some are inspired by the liturgy of the Church. The Sacraments are an important theme. Part 2 concludes with a final alliterative poem, ""As with One Mouth,"" a new rendering of the Song of the Three Young Men.
Antiquity's Covered Bridge
Antiquity's Covered Bridge By: Dorine Emery Dorine Emery is an avid photographer of covered bridges. She began in her local area in New Jersey but knew the LC Beavens bridge in New Milford, Pennsylvania, was a must-see. It was Emery’s fascination with the mountain that rises to the east of Mylert Creek and the bridge she knew was there that led her to Antiquity’s Covered Bridge. History and imagination are woven like the ivy vines on a latticed bridge, facts and fiction which Emery has found on and around the Nevermore area of New Milford. Fiction based on facts, then enhanced by pseudo possibilities might describe mystery within. Not without humor—it is Nevermore who owns Antiquity’s bridge, nor without tragedy—that of Janie’s sorrow over her dear Andrew and their baby, Cheri, Antiquity’s Covered Bridge is a story to be pondered at a moderate pace.
