Our tenth Poem is by James Stephens
A Singing in The Air
A snowy field! A stable piled with straw! A
donkey’s sleepy pow!*
A Mother beaming on a Child! A Manager, and a
munching cow!
-These we all remember now- and airy voices,
heard afar! And three Magicians, and a Star!
Two thousand times of snow declare that on the
Christmas of the year there is a singing in the air.
And all who listen for it hear a fairy chime, a
seraph strain, telling he is born again, -that all we love is born again.
*(An old Scottish word meaning ‘head’)
May God Bless Always, Women of Faith and Hope by
My Mother Rose.
