‘Canto fermo’ is the term for an existing melody used as the basis for a new composition.
The prose and poetry of mystics like John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila and Edith Stein – all informed by the Gospel – is my ‘melody’. The ‘new composition’ is this blog and my indie novel ‘The Age for Love’. To buy my book go to amazon.com or smashwords.com and download to your kindle, iPad, phone or any reading device.

Sovereign of all he surveys: Not quite the partridge in a pear tree, just a quail in the silver germander here at Clairvaux, contemplating the Ruataniwha Plains of Central Hawke's Bay.
