Christmas was gone
before they got to the manger,
camels and servants grumbling.

“We saw his star in the east,” they said.

Mary wondered why
a sign from God didn’t get
them there on time for the birth.

“You missed the angel choir,” she replied.

They knelt before the babe,
offering gifts and hopeful hearts:
“What matters is we made it.”

Peace,
Milton
