I am surprised and happy to see that I have been publishing Brigitine poetry on this blog for ten years now. It started as a place to offer my own poems and prayers to her, as a companion blog to Brigit’s Sparkling Flame, which is not poetry-centered. I was writing so many heartfelt Brigit poems and had nowhere to share them, so I decided to create an outlet for a few drops of that upsurging. As time went on I found -- and then went searching for -- other voices; now I have to remind myself now and then to post something of my own!By way of circling back a full turn, then, here is a link to the first post, a humble offering, from 9 September 2015.
I am so joyful and grateful for this walk with you. Thank you for sharing your writing, your hearts, and for reading the words of so many lovers of Brigit. Here's to many more poems, and who knows how many more years. Ten years of sharing Brigit. May she continue to bless us all.
