Magpie Tale #45


*
  The 
wonder
of Christmas
is in the pondering 
A miracle birth and
 knowledge of the future
that life ends as miraculously as it began
 that one child's birth made it victorious
a reunion with the Creator who was made Flesh
one cold night in a stable in a humble manger
announced by angels singing Hosanna In the Highest
sought by wise men who saw the Star that led their way
where animals witnessed along side shepherds 
 a mother who kept all these things and pondered them in her heart
and
believed
