Epiphany

 For one more night we light the tree

The wise men's journey has come to an end

Fr John marks our door with chalk

As we pray for a blessing

Indeed last year we were blessed despite illness, bread lines, and closed signs

At the word, amen a candle was lit

Ever faithful Hail Mary was prayed

Deep breaths before we sing 

We Three Kings

I ponder on the nativity

Could I trust the way Mary trusted ?

Filth and cold awaiting a new born

Flight into Egypt

My pillowy world has turned me into a halfhearted woman of prayer

Recently, a voice whispers to me, "wake up, the cold is coming. It will fall like rain, and I am the only shelter."
