Tears of the Midwives-a poem 1-28-17

CHRIST IN WINTER: Reflections on Life & Faith for the Years of Winter


Washington, Adams
Jefferson, Franklin
There at the birth

Watching the infant grow
Hoping and watching
Seeing the child become
Full grown

Striding strong
From sea to shining sea
Trampling field and lake
Fawn and cub
Tree and flower
Native and immigrant
Beneath huge unfeeling feet

Lamenting one to another
What have we wrought?
What have we wrought?
