From A Parish Priest: Poems by Fr. Steven Kluge, O.F.M.

As a Franciscan priest I believe that we are called to pray with our eyes opened onto the world. These reflections in verse (I dare not call them poetry) are my attempt to put into words what I have experienced and how I have responded to the glory of God shining through the world.My prayer for those who peruse or read this book is this:As the LORD blesses and keeps you, may you bless and keep others,May you be the face and graciousness of the LORD in the world,May you give the peace of the LORD to all you meet.
