For Those Living Alone At Christmas Time
For your eyes only I have clipped the stars of heaven and sent them
shimmering down
For your heart only, have I gowned the earth with snow and
delivered love to you
Like a snow fallen angel from my Father's stainless house,
I have longed for your arrival like a faithful spouse...
Pour yourself over the warming lights of my birth dear child,
I have set you apart alone, but you are not exiled
Inside Noah's ark two by two they came, pair-filed
but here inside this Christmas flame you are undefiled
come inside my warming lights, dear dear child of mine
eat my bread and drink my wine
come and live within my Festive, Sacred Shrine.
