Hi there Since there are some mistakes in the post that has appeared on goanet, I am re-sending my poem.
Regards Marinella Aurora of Christmastide - Marinella Proença Josef and Donkey trudged down the path Over rocks, then 'ways of cobbled-stone Donkey nudged on to carry his load: Hallowed Tabernacle to the Prince un-born Viagem into Bethlehem's heart. Stopped here – looked on… Weary and hopeful, enquiring along Good Josef He needed a room To rest his Beloved – So patient but worn Good Josef He needed a room To rest his Beloved – She with child (to be born). And so again He stopped here – looked on… Thanks Be! On thrice-try A Keeper of Inn soon ushered them in To a Manger: warm and small No vacancy it seems Across down the hall Josef helped Mary gently to sit On hay: spun gold That shone by lamp-lit Soon creatures witnessed the Birth of our King 'Jeweled Knight, Prince of Peace' Myriad angels did sing The Manger turned Throne for the Li'l Babe within And trumpets they sounded Sweet shepherds they rounded In – the Magi strutted To bow to our King The Manger turned Throne for the Li'l Babe within. Don't wait for clip-clops Don't wait for door-knocks Just open your hearts To the swaddle-clothed King Save your heart as a Throne For Him and Him alone - Peace and Goodwill For you He shall bring. - Marinella Proença
