Master And Boy
"Master And Boy" is a short poem by George MacDonald in which Father Time discovers a weeping child at his garden gate, shivering alone in the cold. The child reveals itself as the Shadow of Christmas Day, separated from its Master during the transition into the New Year. With Old Time urging it on, the Shadow races across a wintry meadow to catch the fading light of Christmas before it disappears entirely — and Time, seated on a gravestone, waits to see whether Heaven's New Year will finally arrive.
