"#Spring was moving in the air above and in the earth below and around him, penetrating even his dark and lowly little house with its spirit of #DivineDiscontent and longing"

Mole, reacting to the first days of spring in #TheWindInTheWillows,

quoted by #MalcolmGuite in #Poet'sCorner

A Christmas Poem by Malcolm Guite…
God gave us all a garden once, and walked with us at eve
That we might know Him face to face with no need to believe.
But we denied and hid from Him concealing our own shame,
Yet still, He came to look for us and call us each by name.
He found us where we hid from Him, and he clothed us in His grace,
But still we turned our backs on Him and would not see His face.
