Christmas Miracles (Five Haiku
nearly twelve o’clock
our tabby opens one eye
distant “Oh ho ho!”
this one special night
the hen house door stands open
wily fox retreats
some little green men
from God knows where see the light
bow in silent prayer
meanest man on Earth
on his camel hears the babe
vows eternal love
he trusted the Star
when the shepherd left his flock
wolves by Star transfixed
