Advent Poem 1 - snowy morning

white world emerges
------------out of messy November

flakes drift and cling desperately onto all surfaces
blessing and covering dark branches
------dirty streets
--------------------littered lawns
as we ponder another advent
symbolic
waiting
---------hoping
-----------------praying
--------------------------working
for a lovelier ------whiter world
and I stare at the reflection of snow filled window
on glass coffee table
beside pink knitted toque
bound for Kenya
