*Not Just Bleakness*Skeletal tree in barren garden,stripped and barein December airbereft of sunshine’s startling pardon,Grace and gift that drives out darkness.But light is dyinglike frail leaves lyinggaunt and pale in winter’s fastness.Yet in each yearly deadly leisurelife remainsin unseen veinstill earth releases buried treasure.(C) David Grieve 2005
Ten years or more of Higher Education, 7 years of Ordained Ministry in the Church of England... and now I'm managing to combine both, parish priest and university chaplain. It's a wonderful life. (Oh yes it is!)
