('and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.' -LUKE 2: 7-8 NIV)
We all know the anecdote of Him being born in a manger,
But there is something about it that is much stranger;
There was a very uncanny star in the opaque sky,
For reasons why shepherds were herding nearby.
Ushering the dawn of Nisan to commence the Spring,
As sheep give birth only once a year, Mary did to a King;
Lambing Season is the epoch described in the Holy Word,
Not Winter, something that Africanus thought that he heard.
Seventh of January Romans set as original Christmas date,
Until the idolaters of Dies Solis Invicti also wanted to celebrate.
