As yonder years expectant maid with child,
Accompanied by older pledged betrothed,
Advanced on weary course with manner mild,
Today, believers, in their faith beclothed,
In advent seek their persons to prepare,
To celebrate the nascence of their lord;
A time for still reflection and of prayer,
That blessings on all beings might be poured;
Be mindful of the chasmic, sad divides
In station, stature, heritage and wealth,
The need for saintly love in all resides,
The gift of the Divine is wholesome health;
May advent hope pervade each living soul,
That brokenness in all may be made whole.

I am on a huge dose of vitamin D and I feel better apart from losing phones etc.I went ton a poetry group on Saturday and they are very nice so I hope to go once a month to the meetings and possible they may give criticism or just interest.I had my first mince pie of the season and talked to a delightful man of very ripe years.Charming Englishmanlmosy of the along gone type.Alas keen on Brexit.Another man said we can cure cancer eating kernels of apricots!!!
