Tend your Hearts
~~~


T'was gentle calm
around us
then
a feeling
in the air
A soothing breeze
disturbed the cold
its breath
replaced despair
The stars had faded
much too soon
mid - night
we wondered why
Then ...
a brighter glow
than a million stars
lit up the eastern sky
Our path seen clear ... in all our years
we never felt this way
We left our flocks
beneath its light
to tend our hearts
that day
~
Three men we saw
in finest garb
with gifts
to bless a king
Bestowed
upon a man
and wife
in a stable
for lesser things
We could not hear just what they said
we thought our place
forlorn
They called to us
and said
"comeforth"
"This night a child is born"
~~~
