The "Canticle of the Creatures" is the great love song of St. Francis of Assisi. It is a beautiful aria, a poem, and a hymn of thanksgiving that praises God and reveals St. Francis's profound relationship with God and all of God's creatures. It is a swan song in the tradition of the troubadours before him that puts lyrics to a life of love. This book attempts to break open the personal implications of the "Canticle of the Creatures" for Franciscans today. Like St. Francis, we are all immersed in creating our own canticles, whether or not we ever sing or compose them in words. Every life well lived is a love song, and we hope that the pages of this book makes that real, especially for anyone who chooses to follow St. Francis and St. Clare
