Happy Christmas everyone. Have a wonderful day. I know this post is a little sentimental but hey ! why not.
Love to you all.
Black, Black the sky cold the winds blow
Across the sand by the light of the stars progress was slow.
She was slight but with child. Tired and near her time.
They had had to travel then, the census to sign.
They arrive late after many days travel and there was no place to stay.
She was too tired to chide her man for his incompetence
Her time was near, she urged him to find a place she could lay.
He found a stable bare and full of the animal’s stench.
He did his best to make her comfortable as she began her labor
She was so young and a virgin she knew not what was happening
Finally a child was born as promised a boy to the world a savior.
From outside came a gentle light and the sound of singing.
People came from far and wide, rich and poor bringing gifts
No one knew why they came but come they did
All saw the beauty of the family and felt their sorrow lift.
