Warmth and wonder

Fresh and crisp as sunlit snow
The Christ lights and warms
With fiery glow

Soft and downy as baby bird
The Christ comforts and cuddles
With tender word 

Bright and sparkling as ocean blue
The Christ cheers and soothes
With touch so cool 

Sweet and ripe as harvest fruit
The Christ feeds and fills
With grace and truth 

Quickly or slowly as I need
The Christ plants and grows
And gardens me
