Throw Me a Bone

Supernova over Bethlehem,
a heavenly surprise,
What did the magi see,
when they gazed the sky,
Comet with bright tail, 
one reasonable assumption,
My least favorite, 
a planetary conjunction,

Truth be told, 
we’ll probably never know,
I can’t help but ponder, 
these cosmic shows,
Bearing in mind,
the significance for some,
Pointed to their savior, 
all omnipotent one,

Who am I to deny, 
having found so few answers,
Does not mean I’m running 
a wheel with hamsters,
Questions, questions, writes
the story to my life,
Wise men l’m behind you, 
just a parsec to the right.
