The Present Season

x

It is Advent I know

x

Last year I wrote

A perambular devotional

x

It comes without

My help and does in

Fact mean coming

x

As it is a season

A loving kind

Of pre-Christmas warning

x

Well I hope it is

Such a good season for you

x

The kind of joy

That prophets might

Foretell but that

By planned devotion

Or surprise

We get

To live anyway

x

Let all of us

As if from Santa Claus

Delivered

To the city- and cave-dwellers

And those who live

Under palm trees

x

Or on high mountains

Inside windy forests

Or on moving sand

x

Have such a season and

At the season’s end

Such and more so

A merry day
