Christmas In the Heavens

Little by little by little by far,
high above I followed a bright
shining star,
something special in the air
no doubt a galactic affair,
symbols, trumpets,
resounding on Earth
a special occasion, a birth.
Oh to be in the heavens,
at this time of the year,
as a space shuttle is
used to man-oeuvre us
among superstars,
having visited Mars,
we are on our way
to the Milky Way
so iconic, so fascinating.
Trillions of stars,
a spectacular sight,
in the quiet of night,
creating a magical tale,
which will never fail,
to delight
and excite.
The Milky Way,
adorns and em-blazes
Our heavenly sky's,
perfect Christmas decorations.
For on the eve of Our
Babes first night on earth,
We will hear carols sung
by celestial beings,
and we heave 
a contended sigh,
shed heartfelt tears, 
for at midnight,
we shout Happy Christmas
to one and all, 
Christ Is born, Christs birth
was God’s call.

Good Morning Jennifer. This is extremely beautiful and in the true meaning of Christmas. I just loved your opening line because yes it is so poetic and it is an opening that sets the tone. Further, that opening line must be read outloud. It was an honor turning to your page this morning. I hope you continue to feel better and stronger from covid and its variants. Blessings always.
