Advent
I used
to write
a poem
each year
at this
time, anticipating
the
Savior’s coming, but
household chores,
the
yard, the holidays––
I’ve
made no time
for
meditation,
writing,
waiting,
.
I hereby vow
beginning now
to take more time
from this day on,
to concentrate,
to celebrate,
prepare, like Mary,
for the Blessed Child.
Lord, help me live
expectantly
today
and
every day
until
the second-coming.
I must make ready--
again.
