A Christmas poem that I wrote in 2001

It was on a starlit night,
Jesus came so long ago.
Born of the virgin Mary,
Angels proclaimed it was so!

Was it in a grand palace
The King of Kings was born?
No, 'twas in a lowly stable
With straw and hay to adorn.

The heavens alit with glory
As angels filled the sky,
Bringing the news to shepherds
Who were in a field nearby.

May we, this Christmas season,
Approach the manger once more,
Telling others of God's love
That for them is in store.
