Twas the Eve of Adam

A hoot owl called

Across the semi barren autumn woods

The sky was large

But the lense was small A strange and wonderful star in the Eastern Sky

The religious fanatics did not know why

The child in faith knew the way To a tiny Township village where He had returned to stay Praise be the wonder of it all The splendid wonder of the fall The coming of Christmas

A Deer Run a Fox’s call A renewed Earth was a country Girl to pray

Praise be for We too are forever here to stay

Gregory Lewis Bishop Written in the wee hours morning
