Eventually


We have just gone off of Daylight Savings Time.  A new beginning is around the corner.  Whatever that looks like.  Before we begin again, leaving something else is required.  Sometimes we spend time in between.  I have had experience here before.  Funny, it always looks a bit different.

Leaving somewhere
Can open up the space
For arrival
Somewhere else.
Eventually.
The trick
Is to let go
And wait
For as long as it takes.
The church calendar wisely
Places Advent,
The beginning of the church year,
In December,
As the light winds down.
Eventually the light will return.
It always does.
It always does.
I tell you
I tell me
It always does.
