The Only Star

They saw the star and roamed very far...far, Lo! Gaspar, Melchior, and Balthazar; Search... is the divinity of my life, Who will tell this to this nation in strife...? I saw it lit on my birth as a child, In form and shape simple and very mild; Breast-fed, I knew, yet needed much-much more, Like eagles and vultures, heavens to soar...! So far from all that I have thought and known, Within and without each and every zone; There, lo, has been only and only name, Isn't it Jesus who lights each small flame...??? 06 November 2022 The Only Star For Me Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Mystic Rose Rose

Hi Christuraj! Good to see you again. I like this lovely piece. You paint the images but also show your feelings, while managing to evoke my own too. A fine work!
