Visions
Christmas Tree
Evergreen,
amidst the deadly cold of winter,
the lovely promise of spring,
the lush fulfillment of summer
and the saddening decline of fall.
Symbol of life--
sturdy and steadfast
like a rock of our salvation
covered with light
to remind us
of the true light
which shines in darkness
and in the shadow of death
to guide our feet
into the way of peace.

to guide our feet
