Poetry 

Poetry often penetrates into the deep mysteries of life through symbol, and has long been used to delve deep into the divine mysteries.  

Here you will find poetry which explores the mysteries of life. As the greatest mystery is our relationship with the divine, the greatest influence on the poetry here will be an exploration of our connection to the divine.
