Vertical Thoughts

by Father Ralph Wright, Mary Ellen Jones (Editor), William Edward Mathis (Photographer)

Mostly Vertical Thoughts is an inspirational, thought-provoking poetry book with poems which focus on the love between a man and a woman and God's love for all. This tender and emotional book contains such touching poems as From All Eternity, Unquenchable Love and As I Have Loved You. Fr. Ralph Wright, who is a poet of great distinction, pens works that reflect his knowledge of and respect for the masters. His images are both beautiful and startling; his metaphors perceptive, his use of rhyme natural. His expertise lies in the unity of word and idea that is the essence of poetry. Mostly Vertical Thoughts is one of eight books of verse by Father Ralph Wright. The poetry of Mostly Vertical Thoughts is never obscure but nevertheless demands that we return, again and again, to delight in and savor both words and subtle meanings. Mostly Vertical Thoughts offers a soothing escape from the pressures and turmoil of every day life.
