It was a small gathering of
those who’d come from far and wide
with the belief of oft-spoken prophecy.
Traveling both night and day
a star in darkness to light their way.
Hopes, rising
they ignored the occasional disgruntled rumple
from Roman soldiers who wanted to provoke
and cajole, keeping their mood light
…festive.
They dreamed of new beginnings
the new dawn of a new age
when a new-born would bring
with Him the greatest gift
For, it was promised that he would
teach them all how to live through
faith, hope, and love.
