1809


two people answer
one question in their footsteps -
trek to Bethlehem

trek to Bethlehem -
angels hum and shepherds watch
hearts that beat as one

hearts that beat as one -
Mary and Joseph travel
the way to sainthood

    What a lesson can be learned from the story of Mary and Joseph and that is "Doing the right thing" in our lives. We must thank them for that.

    This is such a lovely extended haiku. I don't think I've ever actually seen repetition used this way, before, but it works beautifully.

    Happy Ste. Nicholas Day to you too while we watch the trekking of refugees leading up to Jesus' birth. Your poem could be sung as a round, should be. Thank you.
