Compassion

When I cried alone
in the darkness of my night
You called my name

Whose voice

whose voice tells the leaves
it’s time to let go?
whose voice will I hear?

divine radiation
a gleam of heaven’s light
battling sin’s cancer

once more we see
our God is merciful
rain on parched fields

Christmas lights sparkle
each whispering its message
hope endures

His generous heart
wants to give more than needed
the angels smile
