Advent poem

It is advent
Where are you
God?

It is cold.
Garden does not
Grow.

Where are you
God?

It is darkening
Hour by day
Loss

Where are you
God?

‘Do not fear.’
and I try
So hard

Where are you
God?

Days are busy.
Much to do.
Forgotten

Where are you
God?

A lonely star
Shines bright
hope

There you are
God!
