"Sharon CassanoLochman's Spiritual Verse Today is an expression of gratitude, a circle of prayers from the Creator to the reader, and from the reader to all of creation. The verses celebrate our humanity, encouraging us to send white doves to the friend who deserts us, forgive ourselves, and live and die strong as ancient stones, taking the blessings of God into our core. Whether read singly or as a flow, Sharon CassanoLochman's verses meld classic spirituality with our media-driven existence into a relevant and lyrical meditation for today's human condition."

"Whether encouraging us to shine as the heavenly warriors we are or to sing our out-of-tune songs in harmony with the soul, Spiritual Verse Today reminds us of the unique goodness, wisdom, and spirit each of us carries within us. In beautifully crafted passages, Sharon CassanoLochman invites us to celebrate those unique gifts from God. In each essay, we are inspired to nurture our connections with the spirit by practicing love and forgiveness, by taking a walk in nature, by looking into a child's face. Sharon's tender love of nature, her respect for humankind and her faith in the healing gifts of spirit are evident on every page. This writer knows that not every day is not spent in a blissful state of awareness and connection with the spirit that surrounds us. Losses, grievances, fears, self-doubt, being too busy--these are the times, she reminds us, to turn inward to God, to the spirit who can hold our pain with us and provide comfort and direction. You will find yourself reaching for these inspiring and beautiful essays frequently--so put this little volume somewhere handy--at home, at work, while on a stroll. Sharon CassanoLochman has given us a beautiful reminder to slow down and be human."
--Cairn McCormack, Geochemist.
