Drawing on the spirituality of St. Hildegard of Bingen, these poems tap into the energy of green-ness (‘viriditas’) as it pulses through nature and through the times of loss, disorientation, and fresh hope that we encounter in our lives. Sinking into the experience of sacred place, they lead us into woodlands and ocean beaches, local gardens and distant places of pilgrimage. Through celebration and elegy, biblical story and the natural world, these poems invite readers to experiences of meditation and even prayer, embracing all that is green and growing in our lives.
