He Comes in Winter


He Comes In Winter
by
Susan Lenzkes

He could have come in
            springtime
                        when flowers force their way
            through sod and
                        bleating hope is born.
He could have been spring’s Lamb!

He could have come in
            summer
                        when sun streams down
            to warm that hope and
                        breezes cool the doubts.
Ho, summer’s Brightest Son!

He could have come in
            autumn
                        when hope flames forth
            with blazing joy and
                        crimson paints the earth.
Behold, He’s autumn’s Glory!

But He comes in
            winter
                        when hope lies frozen
            in the night and
                        blizzards rake our souls.
He comes, our Living Hope!
