« White Water Discipleship | Main | A reflection on Seamus Heaney: "Poetry is like the line Christ drew in the sand...." »
Just heard Seamus Heaney has died.
A great human being, poet and humane opponent of violence.
Heaney was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1995 "for works of lyrical beauty and ethical depth, which exalt everyday miracles and the living past".
'I've never stopped believing that something new can always happen.'(Heaney)
We need makers of newness.
Requiescat in pace.

Truly a man of many wise words who used his pen thoughtfully and well.
