Meditation on a Drawing by Fritz Eichenberg


Born in a manger

Announced by angels

Tracked by comets

Greeted by shepherds

Welcomed by gentle animals

Sought by ruthless kings

Found by curious magi

Adored by generations:


Remember the children

Save the church

Calm the avenger

Heal the rivers

Restore the fish

Reconcile religions

Restrain demons

Depose idols

Deploy angels


Whatever it takes.

CHRISTMAS, 2011

May mirth and merriment prevail in your households and in your hearts.
