Talk of Nativity
When we talk
of Nativity,
it’s like
planting an ancient oak
back in an acorn
like
pouring a tsunami
into a fish bowl
like packing
a record snowfall
in one furry boot.
What He has done
laying aside royalty
to become us—
can hardly be held in
one timid, trembling heart
in one quaking hand
one puny off-tune voice
singing praise.
Yet—
He thinks it can.
Merry Christmas everybody. Love you and thanks for reading along with me. Love Les
