Unfolding Towards Love

Arts & Literature

“Martin Willitts Jr. writes: ‘I opened a book / a stream of birds flew out.’ Trees listen when the poet speaks; we should listen to Martin Willitts Jr.—a spiritual poet extraordinaire, a poet of wisdom, insight, and affection not to be taken lightly. This book, filled with poetic gems inspired by gardens, art, deeply personal faith, and family life, is poetry for our times of strife, hate, and poison. This is an antidote pill for toxic clouds of darkness that threaten to overwhelm us. Instead, we should breathe in the ‘invisible presence’ and take this ‘careless love careening in our hearts’ in daily doses of brightness. Highly recommended.”
