You are cordially invited to join us for an poetry salon
Loving This Miraculous World
Saturday, April 23
from 3:00 to 4:30 PM
We will gather in the beautiful outdoor sanctuary of St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church in Sebastopol to celebrate Earth Day and honor our only home, sharing poems and songs learned by heart.
Love This Miraculous World
Our understandable wish
to preserve the planet
must somehow be
reduced
to the scale of our
competence.
Love is never abstract.
It does not adhere
to the universe
or the planet
or the nation
or the institution
or the profession,
but to the singular
sparrows of the street,
the lilies of the field,
“the least of these
my brethren.”
Love this
miraculous world
that we did not make,
that is a gift to us.
- Wendell Berry
