poor, his bed is not
even his to claim
at least in human reck’ning
could this be the one
ev’ry soul longs for?
put a name to him
everlasting one
awesome angel-armies king
counselor of might
ensign of justice
perhaps this baby
earth and bone and blood
and a fragile human heart
cradles in his hands
everything — and us
Beautiful, Amelia! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Thank you, Matthew — a very merry Christmas to you and your family, also!
