Departure
- The Prophet
- In a distant, timeless place, a mysterious prophet walks the sands. At the moment of his departure, he wishes to offer the people gifts but possesses nothing. The people gather round, each asks a question of the heart, and the man's wisdom is his gift. It is Gibran's gift to us, as well, for Gibran's prophet is rivaled in his wisdom only by the founders of the world's great religions.

It is fun to share with friends, and the conversations that come from each scenario are usually a little bit thought-provoking and a lot hilarious.

- Psalms
- In her second collection of poetry, Bernard ( Bye Bye Blackbird ) takes the psalm as a point of departure and arrival, mingling a contemporary "scramble of idioms" with spiritual searching in more than 30 poems.
