Prepare the way
prepare the home
prepare the table
prepare my heart
Fix those potholes
line the streets with
flowers and lights
Clean every corner
dust and sweep
gather and hunt
Fill the house with
color and fragrance
flowers and fruit
to center the table
Now the hardest part –
my heart
Dark and dusty places
replaced with light and
fragrance from hidden
fruits sown and grown
the greatest is love
centering all
In that clear night sky
long ago
the angels could not contain
the joy
and sang of peace
the world is yet longing for
Where will this peace be found
if not first in our hearts
cluttered with care and
discord
Prepare ye the way

WOW! beautiful – so much more chaos than peace in our hearts.
Thanks Mary! A life time of learning to drive out the chaos with peace. Learning to change habits of worry, etc, with prayer and gratefulness. Have a blessed Christmas of peace! Love to Solomon.
