Being Alive
a step , a footing,
A distance, each day we strive
By being alive …
Picking up the gauntlet’s throw
Taking on the archer’s bow .

Morning
I woke
A morning pulls me to go out of doors
And stand among the cosmos
To allow the lights to christen
Into promise, will I be witness?
God is listening,
The universe displays his breath.
Shhh, it says,
Pray.

1st Sunday of Advent
A wakeful glimpse
Into darkness that helps us
See past into the light
