ruminate: Meditations on Mystical Wisdoms

This collection took me deep into my soul and out into the fields of my dreams…It feels like a gift from Patty’s heart to ours. To be touched in such a deeply personal way, especially during this time of personal and collective turmoil, is a wonderful thing…

Caryn Levin McCloskey, Spiritual Approaches to Personal Growth

In these poetic meditations, Patty Joslyn invites the reader to wake up and love the world and everything in it. In my soul lives a bird, she says. One tiny creature with nothing but a song. Her words are rich with sensory images: remembered smells (bread baking, lemon, wild mint); the feel of a communion wafer pressed against the roof of the mouth; the sight of a fence waiting for paint or winter, children playing in puddles, the brushed strands of hair she offers to birds for their nests. Always she comes back to the love that connects all things to the divine.
