Fierce Compassion, Deep Devotion

A heartfelt collection of poetry

Marie DiMenna is a creative writer, therapist, social worker, and ordained minister in the Christian Mystical tradition. Her poem, a "Recovery Poem" is published in Occupational Therapy in Mental Health by Tana Brown. Fierce Compassion, Deep Devotion is Marie's first book. Marie currently resides in Philadelphia.

"Truthful, passionate, inspiring, and contemplative. Fierce Compassion, Deep Devotion lives up to its name." -Rt. Reverend Cara, Master and Independent Bishop"DiMenna's book was both calming and inspiring to read. Kindness is the theme, how to be kind to yourself and others in order to create a more beautiful world. Loving ourselves is not easy, but it begins with kindness, caring compassion. Simple poems of giving and receiving kindness point the way toward the world we wish to create. The effect is to reassure us that we can do this, that every thought and every act counts. As Marie writes, 'Breathe in the compassionate world we are co-creating. Breathe out all that does not serve us.' The last section is stunningly beautiful poems from Marie's mystical experiences. Again, they are simple but they go deep. I will use them as prayers as I weave the sacred cloth of my garden and the surrounding forest." -Caitlin Adair, nature-mystic and author of Love's Body Speaks
