Bethlehem, a star attraction, out of thee, Among the chilliads, the small, the great. A shining example - how grateful are we? How deep and wide, one stellar star of fate. In storehouses: blessings, rain, mannah and snow. Likewise, one brilliant star from the creation of time, Proudly displayed, in Paradise, before its eminent solo. Set in its ordained place, for this moment, in its prime. Bethlehem, a star attraction, out of thee, Among the chilliads, the small, the great. In the greatness of destiny, noticed by shepherds And magi, disparaged by self-immortalised pharoah. The precious power of its rays - no idle words Can convey. Singular sign of salvation in its marrow. A shining example - how grateful are we? How deep and wide, one stellar star of fate. Always crowds are pressing in, down below, But the lone star has plenty of open space. A beacon of hope, a compass arrow, its glow Proudly presents a nativity - invitation for grace. Bethlehem, a star attraction, out of thee, Among the chilliads, the small, the great. A shining example - how grateful are we? How deep and wide, one stellar star of fate. 11/9/2022 The Only Star For Me Sponsor: Mystic Rose Rose

I don’t ‘do’ religion, Kim, but never would I refute anyone else’s. This contest was a natural for tales of the Bethlehem star and you wrote wonderfully about it. I’m not converted, but I did read all the way through and actually enjoyed. So congratulations on your deserved win. Terry
