Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Little Blossoms of Love, Kindness, and Obedience, Vol. 1: Scattered During a Lifetime; In Honor of Our Immaculate Mother The art of poetry is a rare gift of God. "Poeta nascitur, non fit," - the poet is born, not made. The ancients fancied poetry to be the daughter of the highest divinity. It has ever been in the service of religion. The psalms of David form the most beautiful portion of the written word of God in the Old Testament. The Church incorporated them into her liturgy. Sacred Hymns occupy no mean place in the Missal, Breviary, Ritual, and enter largely into private devotions. Music is a willing helpmate of her heaven-born sister; united they awake in the soul deep and holy emotions. The poems contained in this volume were composed by a Sister of Charity, whose Mother-House is at Mount St. Joseph-on-the-Ohio, near Cincinnati. They cover a large range of subjects. Many are in honor of the great mysteries of our holy religion or in praise of saints; others were written to former pupils, to members of her community, or of her family, or to be read at graduating exercises, silver or golden jubilees of prelates, pastors, and religious, or to console friends bereft by death of dear ones; some were sung in a lighter and playful strain. Whatever their theme, they are melodius and deeply religious. The sight of a star, a flower, a snow-flake, or the drooping branches of a tree, raises the mind of the poetess to a higher sphere, to the supernatural, to the Creator.
