Advent 1 B


but

to wait
or
not to wait

reasonable question
in
unreasonable times

watching
but
inactive

chooses
then
betrayal

waiting
always
waits

Practiced Sharing

fig tree, fig tree
showing now
a far-off song

tea leaves
presently read
connect with tomorrow

and all we want
is to tear open heaven
to energize today

we'd settle for yesterday
restored to glory
projected forward

but our best gift
is waiting together
in the meantime

practiced sharing
strengthens all
into fellowship

mean times come
unbidden yearning
for better meaning

look for fig leaves
leave them on the tree
let your gift shine
