I'll be looking forward to your posts!<BR/><BR/>My parents said that there's a Cowboy church near them. Wonder if it's a new "brand" of denomination? :)<BR/><BR/>TeriFieldfleurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11440734047941628266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7833034.post-1151330351852792522006-06-26T08:59:00.000-05:002006-06-26T08:59:00.000-05:00My husband laughed and laughed about the Cowboy ch...My husband laughed and laughed about the Cowboy church; he thought it was great!<BR/><BR/>Are you very familiar with Christina Rossetti's poetry? I have just been going through the Complete Poems (Oxford paperback edition), and it is like reading an eloquent and moving devotional, especially the section of poems that were published in her 1892 book just called Verses. She was a devout believer, an Anglican, who gave up marriage because of her beliefs, and she would be far better known had Browning and Tennyson not been the contemporary competition; she is a brilliant poet. Anyway, I will be writing about her work at inscapes sometime in the next few days but thought you would enjoy her.<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/><BR/>BethBeth Impsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15560137034653905618noreply@blogger.com
