Sunday 30 October 2022

Poetry as a Spiritual Practice

A woman speaks of her experience of the reservoir of peace and asks for poetry recommendations. Rupert replies that he spent many years learning and reciting poetry, which he resented at the time, but it instilled a love of poetry and reciting, which he considers a spiritual practice. He mentions Mary Oliver, Wordsworth, Shelley, Blake and Rilke.
