Stardust Fell Down
Blue midnight sky is blanketed with twinkling stars
And once in awhile some stardust falls from heaven afar
Some gold stardust fell when God sent me precious you
His magnificent Son who made a glorious debut
Remarkable entrance into this sin cursed earth
A tiny baby, incarnate God, that Mary did birth
Awe inspiring miracle, when Jesus came down
Someday we'll see Him in His full glory wearing His crown
Something called Poulter's Measure
Couplets where the first line in a couplet is 12 syllables
And the second line in a couplet is 14..Like years ago
a person who raised chickens and had hens that
were layers would sell the eggs for cash or barter..
Sometimes they would give 12 eggs or a dozen then
if the hens were laying good they sometimes would
give 14 instead of the dozen..
