advent dance

we anticipate
in three-four time
a dance by Bach or Handel

we prepare
dance lighting dim world
like strings of bulbs
outlining house on winter evening

we watch
a floating chorale
above the lilting windwork
such peace

we dare
for good is coming
we already see it in the miracle of birth
and wide-eyed we run
bathrobes tangling in our legs
the song of wings ringing our ears

we experience
enter floodlit stable
with care yes     yes

we recognize
this gentle love
glimpse of full-hearted 
waltz revealing
