Skylark-: Poems for First Light

By Kathryn Forrester-Thro and Kathryn Forrester-Thro Obl.SB

Oblate of St. Benedict, Kathryn Forrester-Thro's literary tour-de-force, SKYLARK-POEMS for FIRST LIGHT, speaks to all seeking hope and joy in the midst of life's loves, losses, challenges and tragedies. Epiphanies of Heavenly compassion abound in this poetic masterpiece, beginning with the elegiac title poem, "Ode to a Skylakr," wherein the reader experiences a simple robin, (humble cousin to the Skylark, ) fall fatally from his nest. Life's seemingly ordinary events suddenly become miraculous as the evidence of God's eternal beneficence is made crystal clear. The author's life is laid bare through autobiographical experiences and travels, all pointing to a Heavenly Father who is ever-present, welcoming, and steadfastly devoted to all who seek Him, His angels, and the Catholic Communion of All Saints.
