Wait, watch

What is the sign we are waiting for?
Where will it be born? In the skies,
On the wind, in our hearts, in the
Unlikely? Where will we find the
Answer to our hearts longing?
Will it fulfill all our expectations
Or ask us to start the work of
Fulfilling them ourselves? Why
Do we need to work when what
We expected is a quick fix?
Where when will you come?
Let us be open to all the ways
Christ breaks into our hearts
This Christmas. May we work
Towards watching, waiting for
The hoped for promise and may
We recognize it born in our hearts.
