Waiting
Waiting
Waiting
Trying to be patient
Watching
Watching
Watching
The labouring's ongoing
Reading
Reading
Reading
Verses so well known
Praying
Praying
Praying
For this year's revelation
Waiting
Watching
Reading
And Praying altogether
This poem was written after tonight's advent service of reflection and is linked up to poetry pantry #127 at poets united where the photo of a candle was provided. Happy advent.

I remember advent like that -- lots of waiting. Oh yeah, and playing with the candles.
Watching, waiting, and praying all definitely have a place in the advent season. A good reminder!
A timely poem.......you reminded me of advent when I was young.
Watching, listening, observing, waiting... we each would benefit from more of this advent-related behavior!
It's the advent of a saw blade!
