THE WAY THE LIGHT IS FORMED [M, 5-25-20]


CHRIST IN WINTER: Reflections on Faith & Life for the Times of Winter
THE WAY THE LIGHT IS FORMED    [M, 5-25-20]




I wondered why
the little bird
began its song so early
in the dark beyond
the pane, each note
a question mark
until I heard
the dew upon the ground
answer with a nod
that said, yes,
it is time, and slowly
rose above the trees
in prayer
to meet the clouds
and form the light
to start the day
So does my soul
prepare for light
beyond this life
