ELLIPSES-a poem

CHRIST IN WINTER: Reflections on Faith from a Place of Winter for the Years of Winter… ©

There are days…

…sometimes longer than the day

I sprawled small in the waiting room…

…when I am enough like myself

that it makes me sad.

There are other days…                                          

…sometimes shorter than the day

I went up in the little airplane…

when I stand outside myself

and wonder…

The “place of winter” mentioned in the title line is Iron Mountain, in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, where people are Yoopers [UPers] and life is defined by winter even in the summer!
