  • Roots and Wings
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    Few things go deeper than relationships with parents, or are more complex. And as children become adults and their parents move inexorably towards decline and death, the complexity only deepens even as a primordial simplicity reemerges. While the reflections in these poems are of course personal, they touch on things universal. Many besides me have struggled with ambi...

  • Please Hear What I’m Not Saying
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    Standing at that magical place where sand meets sea, you likely have imagined putting a message in a bottle, consigning it to the waves, hoping it might some day reach another shore, and then not only be read but, incredibly across space and time, make a difference in other lives now connected to your own. It has happened to me, and I must sing of it.In the autumn of 1966 I let...

  • Crafting Soul Into Words
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    Just what is poetry, and who writes it, and why do they write it, and did they always write it or is it something that develops gradually, and how do they go about it, and what are some of the frustrations, and if the frustrations are great what even greater rewards are sufficient to keep spurring them on, and who are they writing for, and where do their ideas come from, and wh...

  • The Mastery of the Thing!
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    The worlds of counseling and sports have things vital in common. Both are arenas for facing and overcoming adversity, for going beyond the limits of ordinary experience, for transcending. In sports it is easy to see. Beyond cheering on our favorite player or team, what we secretly hope and watch for is this potential at any moment for transcendence. Even if it’s but one supe...

  • Steppingstones to the Civil War
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    Slavery and the Civil War-what is the connection, and does it matter? From the view point of the book in your hands, the connection is absolute and it matters greatly.

  • Ithaca Is the Journey
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    While the odyssey traced in Ithaca Is The Journey is highly personal, its central insight relates to the odyssey of all. Spiritual journeyers are invited by these pages to remember the great secret: the Promised Land they are yearning for is somehow the very ground upon which they stand; the haven they hope to find at their journey’s end is, as sages have long mysteriously sug...

  • Fuel for War
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    Fuel for Ware hopes to help break a spell, an Earth-imperiling entrancement that weaves together patriotism, nationalism, and war. That its hold on Americans is particularly fierce is grimly demonstrated yet again in the recent Gulf Wars. Until we collectively awaken from this spell and begin espousing a broader patriotism, elicited by the stupendous image from the moon of the ...

  • If A Child, Why Not A Cosmos?
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    Pondering the immensity of our bond with Earth carries us beyond Faith I-low love a wave apart from the ocean waving? Only in the context of the story of the Universe is Earth intelligible, so whatever love we feel for her extends naturally to the Universe as a whole, and to the magical dynamic conceiving and unfolding it across literally billions of years. The year-by-year blo...

  • Embraced It Will Serve You
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    'Memento mori,' intoned the ancients. But why remember death, why keep the thought of death before us? Is not the goal to live, in effect to fight death, to stave off as long as we can the wrinkles and the gray? 'Think positive,' intones our culture. 'Look on the bright side. Granted death will claim us in the end, it doesn’t have to cheat us out of life in the meantime.''On th...

  • Earth Brother Jesus
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    The crisis facing not only humankind but the very planet is of such a magnitude that we need avail ourselves of all the accumulated wisdom possible-which necessarily includes the wisdom of Jesus of Nazareth-or else literally perish.

  • Deep Joy, Steep Challenge
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    Exacting, exasperating, exhausting, rich, awe-inspiring, transforming-all are accurate partial descriptions of the high calling of parenthood, a calling from the Universe to marvel before its evolution reenacted, a calling from the Earth to nurture and embolden the children she entrusts, calls eliciting from parents all the intelligence, heart, imagination and spirit they can m...

  • The Elixir of Air
    Charles C. Finn / Charles CFinn
    Addiction of one kind or another touches us all. Given its destructive course, it would seem an unequivocal curse to be lamented. The thrust of The Elixir of Air, however, is that it need not be. Addiction can in fact be a hidden blessing for what it forces us to face and change in our lives, for the spirit journey it rudely launches us on. Which is not to glamorize the searing...
