Those same angels on high
who had watched Him create
the immensity of the universe
and the magnificence of the sun
and the beauty of the moon in the night sky
and the multitude of stars twinkling in the heavens
and the mysterious planets both big and small
and all the myriad trees and all the myriad plants
and all the myriad animals from giraffe to honey bee
those thousands and thousands of angels
who had watched in stunned amazement
as He created all this splendor
now joyfully sang of His glory
and joyfully sang of His majesty
and joyfully they sang of His love.
.
Those very same angels
many thousands of years later
watched over a humble stable
where His newborn Son lay in a manger
destined to walk the earth as a man
destined to heal and to teach
destined to be the light in the darkness
destined to die in pain and agony
destined to save God's children from their sins
and joyfully they sang of His glory
and joyfully they sang of His majesty
and joyfully they sang of His love.

I would like to translate this poem
I'm impressed with this poem! Great!
How did you even know it was here? ? ! ! ! PH doesn't even list it in my list of poems except to tell me to edit it and then submit it--I look it over and submit it but it never goes anywhere---I thought until my friend finds it all forlorn and abandoned on
part two----found it abandoned on the side of the road from Limbo land to Pubic City. Thank you, ! ! ! Poor thing was shivering from the cold PH rejection of its little self!
Part 3. Thank you Kostas for your kind words--it is feeling much better because of them!
