The Christmas Silence
"The Christmas Silence" is a nativity poem that draws readers into the breathless hush of the stable on Christmas night. Pigeons settle on dusty rafters, oxen sleep on fragrant hay, and a lone lamb tucks close to its mother's side. At the heart of this still scene, a young mother kneels beside her radiant newborn, pressing her cheek to his face in wordless prayer — until the silence of ages breaks open in a burst of angels, music, and light.
