Kate, as long as the heart is pure, my friend. One can easily envision a better tomorrow, provided of course, one seeks the truth and light. An excellent inspiring poetic treat for the soul. Thanks for sharing your work. Take good care and be well.

This poem, "Advent" is a short-long-rich composition from a graceful and wise poetic soul... Everything suits the harmony of perfection, its imagery and lexicon on to the last line.

Healthy Happy Day, Poet!

Central theme confuses me a bit, sort of like Debbie Boone's old song, "You Light Up My Life," which I always thought was a romantic tune, but later found out was about her relationship with Jesus. Maybe it's the "advent" part that got me? Tell me I'm wrong? Please?
