DEDICATION
For Anne Porter
whose ‘altogether different language’
has reminded me
that poetry is
above all
memorable speech.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I would like to thank the Daughters of
Saint Paul for permission to include the
poems “Today”, “Ripples of Stillness”,
“Ground for Joy” and “Infinite Patience”
which first appeared in a collection of
my poetry that they published entitled
Ripples of Stillness.
I am deeply grateful to William Mathis
who designed the cover. My thanks also
to Cumming and Cleda Paton and Joann
Harvey without whom this project
would never have got off the ground.
Words, after speech, reach into the silence.
T.S.Eliot
