Christmas at the Hut

A perfect day
the perfect way
to awake to
in yet another stay
at Gembrook

The sky is fine
the birds on time
to tap at the window
in vain expression
at Gembrook

We have no gifts
but for the moment
and the warmth
of the rising sun
at Gembrook

We must remember
the gift of love
and loss from God
the everpresent Spirit
at Gembrook
