“Jeremiah, what do you see?”
“I see a branch of the watching tree.”
“Well have you seen, for I am watching to fulfill my word.”

The WatchingTree
In biblical Palestine the almond tree
The first tree to bloom in the spring
It was said never to sleep
But to remain
Watching for the springtime.

Prophesied
We, the Church
Approach
A “new springtime”
