A Simple Star

This poem was written by my cousin Chris Werre, she graciously gave me permission to post it here. It is beautiful!

Everyone could see the star that shone that night.

Everyone

Those whose hearts were pure;

Those whose hearts were just not sure.

Brighter and brighter shone the light

That pierced the darkness of the night.

Little children stopped to stare,

Magi searched for what was there.

The Light shone into the unsure heart...

the child's heart...

the learned mind.

A star, a simple star, drew their eyes...

their hearts...

their minds,

To One whose story never ends;

whose life has no beginning.

Eternal.

Immortal.

Unchanging God.

The Light of the world could be seen from heaven...

from earth...

from eyes that yearned to see hope.

A simple start illuminating the Bright & Morning Star.

One light.

One star.

One Savior.

For you; for me; for all hearts.
