Nevereverland

Nevereverland

x

Think of lovely things

x

That’s how the magic works

Children

Maybe

Can do this rather easily

While grown-ups muddle

Through self-judgment

And what will the others

Think

x

This is might be why

There are so many children

There

While grown-ups lag behind

In steepled London

x

The children get it

By not getting it

They take the glitter

(who will clean this up)

Do their thinking

No preamble

Stretch toward the ceiling

Of the nursery

That kept them in

(Nana below)

And fly

“So come with me, where dreams are born, and time is never planned. Just think of happy things, and your heart will fly on wings, forever, in Never Never Land!”

In a code of context,

Might I say that Advent season is

PG-13

It’s not for children alone

But with parental guidance

 

There are themes here

Songs and rites

Children should enjoy

 

All the peace and companionship

That come near

 

But all ideas are not easy

Some need help

For living

 

For Christ is born not for an easy purpose

And winter can be hard

Summer in the south of Earth

We all need help

From time to time

 

Children should have guardians

Grown-up friends like

Luminaria

To help light the way

 

To the place

And all that is to come

Of Christ’s entry into the world

With theirs

With ours

Luminaria

Luminaria event at the Botanical Gardens in Phoenix. It was such a great night.

Fatima, Medjugorje

Fatima, Medjugorje

 

When Mary appears,

The sky dances

 

Circles of light and faith

Are made

 

First for children

 

There are those who

Doubt, which doesn’t

Matter (though the

Doubters matter)

 

God loves them, and

Maybe God’s mother will

Visit them sometime

 

And if you don’t believe

I love you, still

 

Maybe we’ll all gather

At Guadalupe where

Grown-ups can see

Her, if innocent enough

 

Though I’m never sure

If that means me
