Epiphanies
EPIPHANIES
You suddenly see truth - like a vision -
That you couldn’t see before.
When you suddenly pull open
A previously closed door,
And you say well of course,
Could’ve seen it before instead of behind !
I should have known already!
I must be deaf dumb and blind !
Oh, it’s just dawned on me:
Epiphanies are to do with sight.
A light just went on in my mind:
Now I can clearly see bright.
Wandering in the night
Of the three kings’ long journey
Their guide-star’s shining light
Gave them their very first Epiphany.
Their search for kingship ended
With an opened stable door
They found their vision of truth
While kneeling on the floor
