The angel leads the way
dividing the darkness
with his light sword
Then a weary man walking, and
a donkey bearing a wife worrying,
holding gently her mortal baby boy
The very one who once lit stars
and commanded angels to sing.
Now he nods quietly in the darkness
as the angel leads them on
away from a sobbing Bethlehem

That was a moving poem!
We forget how much Bethlehem had to grieve, too, after He came.
Tammy is right, it is a very moving poem.
