Thank you Joseph. The Holy Spirit moves through you onto the page. You are a lampstand for His light and love. Thank you for bringing poetry into my life.
Great write! Captures the season perfectly. I never thought I would ever read the words "bloom" and the word "dumpster" in the same line, but it works. Love it.
The last three lines -- Ils sont parfaits
"And here the season begins, in the dark,
waiting for the Word to emerge
like the amber glow ."
Just wow!!!

Thank you, Jen. 🙏🏻
Love this. Winter is so beautiful. Especially in the northeast.
That's beautiful. I can almost smell that jasmine-scented chimney smoke.
'Tis the reason for the Season…
Thanks, Steven!
Wow, Joseph. I enjoyed this poem. Thanks so much for sharing it with all of us....
Thank you, Thomas, my friend!

Dumpsters are my specialty.
I love this, so much.
Thank you for reading, Jennifer.
Love the imagery.
Beautiful. Evokes the feelings walking outside the rectory on a snowy December evening.
Oh my, this is so beautiful . . . so glad I subscribed. Thank you, thank you . . . I think we all need this message right now. LOVE.
"I can see as far as I can think." Love it. That's about as far as I can think these days, too. Hibernation does that to a mind.
