we wake
after the longest night
look out at the snow settling on branches
oblivious to
the lengthening days
anticipating only more months of winter cold
yet in a few days
we gather to celebrate light
that candle flame in our being that waxes when
we sing our carols
of faith hope love and joy
of a child born so innocent and soft so full of true warmth
looking out with trusting eyes
at the light
in ours
