Advent
John the Baptist cried out
in the wilderness,
“Make ye straight the path
of the Lord!”
Ah Lord, our paths to you
are
infinite,
meandering.
We look left and right,
to neighbors or senators,
to gold gloves
and golden globes.
But it’s quite simple, really.
I’ve filled my flask
with wild honey.
There, just ahead, is a
light
shining in the darkness.
I think I’ll follow it
to Bethlehem.

Christmas 2015
