Daily Poems for Lent 

A beautiful Lenten resource for individual and group meditation is “Ecce Homo: Poems for Lent and Holy Week”, from the Anglican Archdiocese of Algoma, Canada. The daily Lenten poems include poems of lamentation and pain – reminders of Jesus’s suffering – as well as of contemplation, praise and thanksgiving.  The poems are rich and varied - from poets as diverse as George Herbert, Dylan Thomas, St Thomas More, Christina Rossetti, Wendell Berry, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Mary Oliver, John Greenleaf Whittier, Isaac Watts and many more. Each poem is accompanied by a short reflection, making it an excellent Lenten resource for both groups and individuals.
