The Singing Bowl, by Malcolm Guite

The Singing Bowl takes it's name from the breathtakingly beautiful opening poem, a sonnet which connects poetry and prayer. It includes poems that seek beauty and transfiguration in contemporary life; sonnets inspired by St. Francis and other outstanding saints; poems centred on love (which might be used at weddings), others on parting and mortality (which might be used at funerals). A further group, 'Jamming your Machine', searches for the life of the spirit in the midst of the modern era and includes an ode to an iphone.
