On the Eve of Advent
On the eve of Advent
Jupiter ascends
As is his custom at
dusk this time of year
Then Mars and the
company of Orion
And all the dutiful
stars awake, arise
To mark the passing of
Ordinary Time
And arc into the west
and disappear
Late leaves rustle
unseen in the deepening dark
We whisper our Compline
prayers along with them
And in the absence of
light await the Light
Which will appear in the
most unlikely places
