  Poet Dorothy 'Dorf' Bonarjee was born in India in 1894 into an elite Bengali family. As a child, she moved to London and in 1912 she enrolled at the University College of Wales at Aberystwyth. Two years later, she was awarded the Bardic chair at the Eisteddfod, and went on to publish poems in Welsh journals.

  Begin With A Question

  Begin with a Question explores how the life of faith is a continuous voyage, launched anew each bright day of the spirit or dark night of the soul. This is a book of contemplation and motion, a journey— often in stops and starts— toward the Divine, a pilgrimage paved with prayer, praise, pause, penitence, and (of course) questions. Urgent and universal, joyful or joyless, tinged with doubt or rinsed with hope, here are honest queries that probe, lift, and lead to discovery. Begin with a Question keeps us moving, seeking, reaching, lifting us out of ourselves to something beyond. Using a variety of fixed forms and free verse, the poet examines our relationship to the one who asks, " Who do you say that I am?" A book for seekers, doubters, and believers alike, these poems bring us face to face with anguish, anger, awe, and adoration. They give us permission not to demand answers, but to follow the questions that lead to the Alpha and Omega, to the I AM that keeps us spiraling along this twisting path toward God.
  
  
  Begin with a Question is published under Paraclete Press's Iron Pen imprint. In the book of Job, a suffering man pours out his anguish to his Maker. From the depths of his pain, he reveals a trust in God's goodness that is stronger than his despair, giving humanity some of the most beautiful and poetic verses of all time. Paraclete's Iron Pen imprint is inspired by this spirit of unvarnished honesty and tenacious hope.

  I traveled the dirt road with no water in sight. 
  My lips parched and dry from the burning sun. 
  My feet cracked and rough, cut with sharp stones. 
  I had traveled this road many times. 
  I knew the trail, yet somehow this time 
  it seemed unfamiliar; 
  All around was desolation, bareness, and emptiness. 
  I was tired of the heat; I cried out to God 
  "Father please come rescue me." 
  He said, "I am right here." 
  He was just waiting for me to ask for help. 
  He gave me water for my thirst, 
  Food for my hungry soul, and he walked on with me. 
  I trust him more now, 
  I know I will never pass this way again.
