Star of Bethlehem

A bright announcing beacon

Of that divinely vivid moment

Casting out it’s cleansing light

For all to see and partake of

Calling the Magi to the manger

Purity of deference for the Messiah

Illuming human shadows with belief

Granting all the peoples a choice

And the gift of chance for…eternity

Pure poetry my friend! 'Magi/manger/Messiah' is marvelous alliteration... a wonderful piece with an inspiring message. Best wishes, Keith (PS Please look at 'Congregation' if you have time.)
