Dove of peace
Coora, coora said the dove I bring light and I bring love. Such was the light that fell around it lit each pebble and grain of sand on the ground.
It was strange the Hotel Delph usually a place of wealth, had shepherds and sheep and ordinary folk streaming towards it an appointment to keep.
Mares and Jo bathed in gentle light resting in the gazebo after a busy night. Swaddled tightly in his arms Jo held his baby for now safe from harm.

Jo holds his son
Here within this baby’s heart is the blessed grace to give us a brand new start. All the people strangers to one another, had all had the call to come and greet the new Child here with his father and mother. The Dove descends and comes to rest near where these new parents have made their nest.

gentle angels
Gentle angels from heaven above look down upon this scene of tender love. Stragglers come from far and wide, the Ox, a dog a cat and many others beside. They all have gifts to give to this child who as a man will die so we can live.
A small group hover outside embarrassed by their pride, they have nothing to bring to give to the baby king.A beautiful angel approaches them and asks why they wait , they explain they no gift . The Angel bids them their hearts to up lift their love for him is an ample gift.
Annya and Irene cannot believe their eyes they delivered this babe and heard it’s birth cries is this really where they work with all this light and people here how transformed this mean courtyard does appear.
Still some way off along the road our three wise men near with their precious load, of gold, frankincense and myrrh to worship a the baby’s feet and gentle Jo and Mares to meet.
Just for now we watch this strange, strange scene the farm animals, and the insects all clearly seen, mix and mingle with family pets and lots of humans lets not forget. This must truly be the Messiah for in every soul here tonight burns a fire of love and truth and sacrifice …the cats are just ignoring the mice, no pushing no shoving all is calm like the baby’s breathing in Jo capable arms.
