Poetry for Lent

In my last post I mentioned, a little dismissively, that I had considered the possibility of writing 40 poems for Lent this year. It has become a little more than a possibility, and if you look at The Consolations of Writing you can track my progress or, as the case may prove to be, failure at this fairly ambitious project. I'm up to three now, with a few in the wings, so we'll see how it goes. I hope they can be helpful for thoughts/prayers/devotions during this season.
