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.
