They set their clocks by flower petal
As they open or close-
Bethlehem Star,Sowthistle
Julap,Field Marigold
or scented Evening primrose
Wise men see the star
Shining brightly in the east.
Here is Bethlehem.
The star is showing the way.
The Savior is born today.
Heading into Bethlehem ...
Three Wise Men,
In search of a stable.
Heading out of Bethlehem ...
Three Wise Turkeys,
While they were - still able.

Any proof for God is
oxymoronic
God needs no testament,
only man
Not to be indicted,
not to be confirmed
Beyond all dialectic
—God is
(Bethlehem Pennsylvania: February, 2021)
He found a poetry lines written by the wayside
They were lyrical pieces of elemental sweet ride
So he hurriedly did post them
To the holy city of Bethlehem
Before he walked away full of pride
promise stirs
as light shines
on manger
mother’s love
cradles babe
tenderly
Bethlehem
gives to man
salvation

For Charles Messina’s Charlieku 3-3-3 contest
My sweet young child so small and mild,
For born is Bethlehem,
Under the star in the barn.
Your heart so small and wild,
Unknown to later be exiled.
For all is loving him,
Under the star in the barn.

A Pilgrimage
Of Christ, many said they saw an image,
So to certain place went on a pilgrimage;
Were in search of,
Love from above;
Bethlehem is where they found a village.
Thanksgiving is coming soon.

There a star
Guided them.

Her book was disturbing,
in an antiseptic kind of way
Cleansing words of their reluctance,
periods gone—commas laid
“Tribute To Joan Didion’s
‘Slouching Toward Bethlehem’”
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2017)
This
lovely
time
of year,
Christmas, when
Jesus
Christ
was born.
Angels sang
in Bethlehem;
they sing still
within
hearts
who hold
the Christ child
dear. Do
you
hear the
song?

Do They Know It's Christmas
Shepherds from a nearby farm,
heard star sing o'er Bethlehem,
she sang hymns as cops disarm,
three unwise rob an ATM.

Christmas Chastushka - Rules Revised
~~Andrea Dietrich
Rhyme Scheme: abab
Twas the night before Christmas, and all through Bethlehem,
Joseph was searching for a room for them
He searched and he searched all round the town
But nowhere to stay for them could be found
So they went to a stable and in a bed made of hay
The Christ child was born on the first Christmas Day
Form:
It is in black and white, and in plain view.
The birth is described in the Gospel of St. Matthew.
He came to save the earth and his fellow men.
It was in a town called Bethlehem way back when.
Jesus gave his life for us, but is coming back again.
Inspired by another member's poem
Finally, Wise Men did show,
They lost Bethlehem, you know,
Their queens did wait,
Moronics arrived bit late,
They forgot to deliver the afterbirth,
Now there's no Peace on Earth,
"I don't want any more pets!"
No Mary ever said, but yet,
Peace on Earth would be great
For our human race, anticipate!
In the city of David,Bethlehem,
beaming stars spread across the sky,
lights reflecting from all nooks,
cool breeze with twinkling elements,
ramshackled stead enveloped
with clusters of shimmers.
Baby Jesus wrapped in swaddling cloths
but engulfed with eternal glory,
the honour that abounds forever.
