winter table





Deep Mid-Winter drawing near,
 Darkness in our Garden here
  One small flame yet bravely burns
 To show a path which ever turns.
 Earth, please bear us as we go,
 Seeking Light to send a-glow:
 Branches green and moss and fern,
 Mark our path to trace each turn.
 Brother animals, teach us too
 To serve with patience as you do.
 We walk with candle toward the Light
 While Earth awaits with hope so bright:
 In the Light which finds new birth
  Love may spread o'er all the Earth.
 Deep Mid-Winter drawing near - -
 May Light arise in our Garden here.
