The Book, The Burial, by R. Penman Smith is available through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and directly from Tate Publishing. The Burial is a Spiritual Thriller with a dark twist and a redemptive outcome. The story springs out personal experience; ‘write what you know about’. Those who are comfortable with fantasy and are not afraid of the reality of the spiritual warfare inherent in Christian life will love this book.

Imagination is the faculty through which we discover the world around us, both the world we see, and that other unseen world that hovers on the fringe of sight. Love, joy and laughter, poetry and prose, are the gifts through which we approach that complex world. Through the gift of imagination we have stepped into an ever flowing river where the realm of Faerie touches Middle Earth.

Golden Wave








Heaven’s air, golden, heavy, aromatic.
Sharp tang borne on Eternal Seas
Seemingly so palpable
One could swim in it, drown in it,
Yet in surrender into it
Is no mere death,
But life giving death.
To breathe such tumultuous waves of air
Brings rhapsody of life,
Unimagined brilliance of consciousness.
O to deeply breathe His breath,
To draw in Love’s breath and thus be Love’s own body,
O to breathe the golden wave of heaven.
