A Christmas Sky

Note: The new batch of bread is very lively! I'll have two bags two share in a few days. Who wants dibs?


It's been a long, busy day, and I'm sharing something from my Christmas collection. It's a reminder to me since Darren and I have been so busy setting up Midtown Cycles. It's time to stop and linger in God's presence for awhile.


Under a Christmas Sky

Crystal strings of silent, white sheep
transverse sparkling blue,
a Christmas sky
inexhaustible for anyone who stops-
who looks up-
who lingers.

Yet, sorrow still stirs and hunger abounds.
Listen, to the sounds of the struggling season;
Yet, laughter still fills this place with its sounds
under a Christmas sky,
a giveaway for everyone who stops-
who looks up-
who lingers.


Teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom. Psalm 90:12
Peace.
Love, Linda
