Gabrielle’s Horn

Arts & Literature

“In putting the insights of He and I before us in the form of his poetic reflections, David Craig has done us a spiritual service that can well be described as ‘enchanting.’ I use the word enchanting because David notices things about our lives that often remain in the shadows of the mundane and puts them before us in a poetic form imbued by the heavenly perceptiveness of Gabrielle Bossis. The simple and guileless expectancy of David’s poetry can make us like little children, who again reach out for what lies beyond our narrow ‘grown-up’ horizon and perceive the startling presence of Jesus Christ. As with all of David’s poetry, forgiveness and understanding pervade the lines of every stanza, and one finds in his writing that friendly disposition most in need when we try to iron out the wrinkles of our frail lives.”
