Album Cover Challenge 85

Thank goodness there was a challenge I could tackle today because I don't know how much more of my wacky processing you folks can endure!

Artist: St. Botolph's Church- an Anglican place of worship in the village of Quarrington, Lincolnshire, England. The oldest parts of the church date to the 13th century although there is documentation of it existing in the early 1000's. Renovations and restoration work has altered the church's layout somewhat through the years.

Title taken from a poem by T. S. Eliot, the American-born English poet, dramatist and literary critic (9/26/1888-1/4/1965). He was noted for the spiritual themes in many of his poems. Raised Unitarian he converted to Anglicanism in 1927. (An unplanned but interesting coincidence since I'm posting his quote on his birthday and the "artist" is an Anglican church!)

Title: Not Enough Silence

If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spent,
If the unheard, unspoken Word is unspoken, unheard;
Still is the unspoken word, the Word unheard,
The Word without a word, the Word within
The world and for the world;

And light shone in the darkness and
Against the Word the unstilled world still whirled
About the centre of the silent Word

O my people what have I done unto thee
Where shall the Word be found, where will the Word resound?
Not here, there is not enough silence.

This is a beautiful creation, Ann. However, I cannot find the connection with the Anglican church.

@sangwann St. Botolphs is an Anglican church and T. S. Eliot was an Anglican- that was the connection.

@olivetreeann LOL! I just reread what I said about this picture and I have no earthly idea what Siri was doing! I believe what I said was "you always do such a nice job"..... and Siri wanted to make it something more than that !!!😳
