Fingerprints of God (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781462410262)

Love, surrender, and service to all life are the central themes in Fran Blackwell's poetry. These themes manifest stylistically from humor to ecstasy. She turns mystery into insight with one carefully produced phrase.

The subject of her poetry is Life, and each poem is like a song from the experiences of Soul. With infinite patience and acceptance, she examines the experiences of her own life and delivers the inner wisdom she gains from this examination into common language. She shares her spiritual inheritance unselfishly, honestly, and joyously.

Like the works of Rumi, Fran's poetry reaches beyond religion, culture, and time. It speaks to all who have the ears to hear and the vision to see the uncommon beauty and insight that manifests in her words.

A dream poetry class with Rumi was the inspiration for these poems, which were written over a period of three years. The author's lifelong quest to know truth and God, no matter the cost, has been a road filled with experiences of love, pain, joy and profound opportunities to know the ways of Divine Spirit through the Beloved Master. It has been an exhilarating journey that continues to lead her to higher truths as she explores the inner worlds of the Divine.

The relentless inspiration of Spirit has resulted in these poems, in which she tries to express in words the truth of the eternal nature of Soul. It is her passion to share this with all who walk the path of their spiritual journey.
