This is a very meditative Lenten meditation with pictures of the desert, reminding us to enter the desert of denial of our earthly passions in order to allow the grace of Christ's love to replace our human sins and shortcomings.

Sunday Snippets--A Catholic Carnival
Sunday Snippets is brought to you each week by RAnn at This, That and the Other Thing.Sorry for the late start for Sunday Snippets this week. It's still Sunday for another 2 hours! :D
This week we looked at another Lenten Meditation for Music Monday, and more of Gregory Petrov's beautiful poem for Poetry Wednesday. For Art and Beauty Tuesday, we saw a very moving picture by Alfred Edward Borthwick called The Presence. I also have a post about National Poetry Month.

April: National Poetry Month
April is National Poetry Month and Poets.org has 30 ways to celebrate! Write a poem on your sidewalk with chalk, .listen to an audio poem during your commute or go to a poetry reading.
One of the most intriguing suggestions is to write a favorite poem on a piece of paper, carry it on your pocket and share it with your friends.
Poetry is accessible to everyone. Long or short, rhyming or free verse, it is something that can be enjoyed and treasured like a well brewed cup of tea.

Lenten Poetry Wednesday
More poetry from Gregory Petrov for Lent.
Glory to Thee, bringing from the depth of the earth an endless variety of colours, tastes and scents
Glory to Thee for the warmth and tenderness of the world of nature
Glory to Thee for the numberless creatures around us
Glory to Thee for the depths of Thy wisdom, the whole world a living sign of it
Glory to Thee; on my knees, I kiss the traces of Thine unseen hand
Glory to Thee, enlightening us with the clearness of eternal life
Glory to Thee for the hope of the unutterable, imperishable beauty of immortality
Glory to Thee, O God, from age to age
