You of course get a double amen from me. Maybe there is a chorus of silent amens "out there" as well. Now you sound like a Southern “Babdist” preacher!

Studies in beauty, and now poetry appreciation. Is there a fee for the tuition? Honestly, this has been great. I love to be stretched, and Dean, you are doing just that to me. I hope others are getting into what certainly is the wonder of creation and we're doing it from many vantage points. Enjoyed Bryant's poem. Had to download it with the Capitalization and punctuation and there was even one called "A Study Version" by a Dr. Rampey. Bryant echos (in a far more eloquent way than I could) the reality of what I call "a cathedral in the wilderness". His sanctuary under the "verdant roof" of the forest canopy strikes a chord that resonates with me. No need for fancy carvings nor stained glass windows when there is barky trunks, fresh moist ground, delicate forest flowers and the like. Wonderful. And I also say with Bryant, "Be it ours to meditate In these calm shades thy milder majesty, And to the beautiful order of thy works Learn to conform the order of our lives." Can I get an amen???
