A peaceful eve, cold icy white
of Yuletide greetings laced in gold,
it harks the Heralds to the site,
a peaceful eve, cold icy white.
On angels high, this blessed night,
they flock to meet Him, young and old,
a peaceful eve, cold icy white
of Yuletide greetings laced in gold.

Three Wise Men journey, gifts to bear,
great glowing star points north to show
a swaddling Savior, hallowed Dear,
three Wise Men journey, gifts to bear.
Warm sheep and camels soon draw near,
the oxen leading seem to know,
three Wise Men journey, gifts to bear,
great glowing star points north to show.

What a lovely composition this is ! Love the references to ice and snow that you weave into the traditional story. Is a lovely visual poem for me. I am so glad you decided to enter the contest. Best of luck !

"...We are born into the world like a blank canvas
and every person that crosses our path takes up the brush and makes their mark upon our surface.
So it is that we develop.
But we must realize there comes a day that we must take up the brush and finish the work. For only we can determine if we are to be just another painting or a masterpiece..."

1981 Javan (from the book " Meet Me Halfway" )
