When wishing could bring happiness.
TO KATHLEEN, AT CHRISTMAS
(An Acrostic)
K ings of the East did bring their gold
A nd jewels unto the cattle fold.
T he angel’s song was heard by men
“H oly! holy! holy!” then.
L ittle and weak in the manger He lay
E ven as you in a cradle to-day;
E ven as you did the Christ-child rest
N estling warm in His mother’s breast.
