lost in the lights and glitter


the sacredness of Advent
in the waiting for Christmas
lost in the light and glitter
the noise of this season
in the bargains, the specials,
the things of the flesh
the things that divert us
that cause us to turn
from the coming of the Christ-child
from the promise of salvation
from Christ’s return one day
lost in the lights and glitter
the noise of the season
the siren song of the world
