A poetry project to write 99 modern sonnets, each inspired by one of the 99 beautiful names of God from the Sufi tradition. As Blavatsky said - 'Words Matter!' - and so does feeling!! Some poems will refer to my son Andrew who has Down's Syndrome .... and every word, every facet, has to do with something probably quite ineffable -- Love!

54. Al-Matin – Persistence
Suggests steadfast, whole, one step at a time ---
'They hand in hand with wandring steps and slow,
Through Eden took their solitarie way' John Milton
Robert Frost
When 2 paths diverged,
he spun around, scratched his head,
and took a next step.
