I would feed you …
... with honey from the rock …
Psalm 81:16
The second volume of poems in this series is called ‘Poems for Reaching Out’. Like the first volume, the series assumes that poetry itself is a way of helping us interpret life – its purpose, its design, the opportunities it offers us to make sense of what we often take for granted, the invitation to reach out to others in our journey of faith and life.
Much of the focus of the poetry is the ordinary, especially the surprising, everyday moments of joy and kindness that help us acknowledge the purposes of life – to celebrate the everyday, to find nourishment in the unexpected, to open ourselves to fragility as well as richness, to rejoice in the gifts of life and the mystery of it all.
Denham Grierson, a retired Uniting Church Minister, first had poems printed in his school magazine. Over the years in his writings and speaking engagements the occasional poem appeared, but only in retirement from thirty years of tertiary teaching, and forty years of ministry, has the time been available to focus on poetry, that access into the depths of our lives, as Denham describes it. There is still time for golf, family, and travel but they too are resources for writing poems.
