Jesus Christ's birth
Three wise men
follow symbolic star
seeking new king.

Shepherds shake
with palpable fear
at angels’ proclamation.

Mary, soul replete
with God’s favor,
tends her charge.

Joseph whispers
thankful, humble,
holy prayers.

Each awestruck.
Worshiping,
praising God.

All eyes on
baby Jesus:
humanity’s
greatest hope.
