My dear
Thanks for your mail.
Pleasant weather with Christmassy spirit brightening up things…JC fest coming up and Carol practices all over the place… CIAs for some of you and an overall general sense of winding up as yet another year comes to an end.
Meanwhile it is also the hopeful, joyful, preparatory season of Advent.
A photographic illustration and some poetic thoughts for the occasion.

Wide spread… wide open
Sky gazing glow-fully
Not just willing but eagerly
Awaiting heaven’s bounty
The cloud skies respond
Drizzle drops descend and stay
Passing shower gracing
Open heart embracing
Magic moment a brief in time
Announcing arrival, a sign
The world awaits the holy one.
He who is to come will come.

More faith deepening and hope anticipating excitement as we roll along towards Christmas.
Other college things carry on and I do what I can to keep myself usefully busy.
Take care. Stay well.
Advent love to all of you, Terry
