Sometimes Poetry is Preaching

I read this poem the other day in an email from Panhala.net. They always share wonderful poetry.

I should be content
to look at a mountain
for what it is
and not a commentary on my life.

- David Ignatow.

Atop a 12,000 foot mountain in Rocky Mountain National Park

In the words of Meister Eckhart, a Dominican mystic:

If the only prayer you pray in your life is thank you, it will be enough.

If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough. - Meister Eckhart
