DECEMBER MEDITATION by Stanley Shiel

The frosted rooftops greyly lit, are ranged
Beneath benignant stars and naked moon,
While sleeping trees in shadowed maze extend
Their roughly-angled boughs aloft, toward
The opened deep of late December night.
Then peering through the mingled branches came
A liquid gleam of lucent blue, as if
A contemplative eye surveyed the scene
On which it gazed-- a planet, riding high,
Processing through mid-heaven this winter night.
My mind imagined Bethlehem, whose star
Once ruled a different sky in other time;
Revealed, beheld, pursued; ordained to point
Three kings of earth to where the Highest King
Had come into the world that Christmas night.
