Blessed

Everything that was ever made, from stars, planets, oceans, insects, and humans, are blessed by the birth at Christmas, the time when we pause to consider light and darkness, the turn of the earth, and the wonder of how things change …

To Bethlehem: ‘This little book is delightful, full of … poems on this timeless subject. … the most fun is the little prose vignettes of the common people in the Christ-child story. The slave who looks after the wise men’s camels, or the overworked maid at the inn who has to fetch water for the birth, and many more. A lovely gift for the reader on your Christmas list!’ Rosalind Adams. Available from Amazon and Kindle.
