THE BARDCAST - Sarah de Nordwall - Eternity's Horizon (The B Side of the C Side of #23)
Are you excited about an education of the heart, the call of wild woods, waves and stars? Here is The Bardcast to share, this week, a way into the Great Story , via the comments section under a hobbit video, the Poetic Vision of the Benedictine way of life and a glimpse into the fabulous fragments of your own inspired imagination.
We also hear a poem from Sarah that speaks of the beauty of true eros to anchor us beyond the world and to taste the joy of holy leisure that re-inspires us for life.
THE BARDCAST airs live and can be listened to on www.RadioMariaEngland.uk or digital radio in London, Bristol, South Birmingham and Cambridge at 3:15pm after the Divine Mercy Chaplet on Sundays and 8pm on Fridays. Each week Sarah de Nordwall reflects on poems that have been sent in, shares a poem of her own, leaves us with a theme and a writing prompt and sends us off to write something ourselves.
Send your submissions to sarah@sarahdenordwall.com and the rest of the podcasts can be found on Radio Maria England’s website.
