Courage to Fly by James Welch /November 16, 2019 by Elisabeth Cooper

Gather your hope

We ride at dawn

Restore the moment

Before we journey on

Free from the fears

That are past and gone

Flight is courage

The wounded wear best

Healed wings

And abandoned nest.

There are emerging prophetic voices in the earth. Part of this expression will be through the poets, the songwriters, the storytellers.

The New Poets of Immortality is a collective of poets who live and write from the revelation of life and immortality; moving from the longstanding poetic culture of melancholy that so often colors the world of poetry, in order to see a new breed of poetry established in the earth. They speak from the place of union, they carry voices of beauty and authority, they are calling the future into today in agreement with heaven.

Here you will find the first chapter in a growing community of kingdom poets, an ever growing collection of poetry from The New Poets of Immortality. Soon to come, The New Poets of Immortality will be releasing a spoken word album.
