Great class on Friday. I loved being out in the sunshine:) As I have mentioned before, I really enjoy the outdoors and nature. I love to do anything that's outside. Being able to re-read the poems outside with all the animals around, the sun shinning down, and the cool breeze made the poem come to life.
Most of the poems were pretty good, but the one that I felt I could really understand and relate to was the "Six Recognitions of the Lord." I loved the detail and description words that were used. They were words I could understand, but not boring or plain. The poem made me look at things in a different light. I felt connected to this poem, than with any other poem I have ever read.
I am anxious to go to the park tomorrow. I believe as I re-read the poem, I will learn something that I did not realize before. Hopefully it's nice out, so that I can just enjoy sitting, watching, and listening to the animals and trees and all other sounds of nature. It would also be nice to have my quiet time there also. We can use literature, such as these poems as an act of worship. I believe God can speak to us through them. I'm excited to see what God's shows me tomorrow!
