Candlemas

February 8, 2017

on the day of Candlemas

they took the new hope

the new promise

in the form of

a baby

to the temple

for a blessing

to confirm the mission

to open up the

process

and

the blessing

was given

and Simeon and Anna

rejoiced

but

others did not

know of the promise

and still others

who would not​​ 

trust the new

vision of

release and freedom,

sight and good news

to the poor and captives​​
