Listen to poem:

Watching For the Feast of Pascha

Watching for the Feast of Pascha
David J Walker

The long night
That blurs the light
Of an early afternoon 
The winter moon 
hanging around
will soon be found 
Shining on the other horizon 
Waiting for the first dozen
Signs of Spring
	Poor thing
Watching the East for
The feast of yon Pascha 
	Poor thing

Watching for spring is often painful and painstaking. Nicely done.

Thank you, Caren. It seems we are caught in a cycle of waiting for something better.
