Poems by Laurance Wieder, including photographs of poems exhibited, with decorative artwork by Andrea Korotky, in an outdoor gallery over a nine-year period.
A Look Ahead
This roughly chronological collection assembles the best of Laurance Wieder's poetry written over the past half-century. The poems speak in a chorus of voices, from Franz Schubert's to Goofy's, and feature the meditations of John Wayne and an Italian anarchist carpenter's take on democracy and organized religion. In his lyric dialogue with the world, Wieder's poems emerge from the ordinary to make something sensible out of the invisible.
Words to God's Music
Words to God's Music is the first complete poet's version of the Psalter since Christopher Smart's 18th-century Psalms of David. Each of these 150 poems is a unique response to the corresponding biblical psalm, and speaks to and from the heart. Some of these poems live fairly close to their biblical originals; some stand as commentaries or variations on the text; some venture afield. Neither translations nor interpretations in the strictest sense, they get to the heart of the psalms with an awareness of how they speak to both the eternal and the immediate, living moment. Revised and corrected version of the acclaimed, out-of-print 2003 edition.

This caravan of exiles and messiahs, poets and scholars, novelists and travelers, composers and artists transports the written word-that human thing which lasts.
The Last Century
Collection of 69 of the American poet's best poems written over the last two decades. He has written a number of books, including TThe Coronet of Tours' and TFull Circle: Panoramas by Kenneth Snelson'. The introduction is by the Australian writer and poet, John A Scott.
The Poets' Book of Psalms

Chapters into Verse
Drawing a unique map of the history of English poetry, Chapters Into Verse surveys and defines the literary legacy of the Scriptures from the fourteenth century to the present. Arranged in scriptural order from Genesis to Revelation, the book presents each poem alongside the biblical passage that inspired it. Thus readers can conveniently witness the various ways sacred text has sparked the imagination of poets throughout the ages. The editors have included poems by virtually all the prominent religious poets--among them John Donne, George Herbert, Henry Vaughan, Edward Taylor, and Gerard Manley Hopkins. Included, too, are devotional and visionary works from a wide range of vintage poets--Ro...
