Mechthild of Magdeburg - Christian/Catholic Visionary and Poet

[bobby1933]

An interesting person
A visionary from age 12.
A Beguine.   A nun late in life.

I love some of her poems, especially these interpreted by Stephen Mitchell
A fish cannot drown in water
Effortlessly

And also these
In pride I so easily lost Thee
Then shall I leap into love
