标 题: Holy night: Every night a child is born is a HOLY night
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Fri Dec 21 03:12:19 2012, 美东)
Every night a child is born is a holy night. --Sophia Lyon Fahs
And so the children come.
And so they have been coming.
Always in the same way they come --
Born of the seed of man and woman.
No angels herald their beginnings,
No prophets predict their future courses,
No wise men see a star to point their way
To find a babe that may save humankind.
Yet each night a child is born is a holy night.
Fathers and Mothers --
Sitting beside their children's cribs --
Feel glory in the wond'rous sight of life beginning.
They ask where and how will the new life end—will it never end
Each night a child is born is a holy night—
a time for singing
A time for wondering,
a time for worshipping. |
