Dove describes
Jesus’ birth
SPECIAL NIGHT
By Darlene Hemingway
Grey Central P.S.
As I, a snow white dove,
gracefully flew across the dry, hot,
sand I noticed a small donkey with
one passenger begin led by a young
man. The passenger was a lady
that, to me, looked like she was
going to have a baby soon. They
slowly trotted along the dusty, dirt
road in silence.
I thought nothing of them, just
another couple on their way to be
counted. But something was
different about this couple. I was
fascinated with the bright glow
around their heads. I had never
seen anything as beautiful or unreal
yet as real as this. It seemed almost
like, yes, like a beam from heaven
was shining down on them. Almost
like God had a shield of steel armor
surrounding them and their donkey.
I could understand why? They
looked like ordinary people to a
small dove like myself.
When the couple finally made it
to Bethlehem. They asked many
innkeepers for a place to stay. The
woman let out a cry and the man
begged the next innkeeper for a
room but he said, "There are no
rooms left in all of Bethlehem. I do
have a stable back behind the inn
where you can stay. I won't
promise any comfort though."
The man happily replied, "We
will take it. The animals will keep
the stable warm."
The couple quickly approached
the stable in the back. The lady let
out a second cry as the man helped
her down into straw. She was
having the baby, all right.
A little while later I perched
myself on a ledge in the bam. I saw
a radiant baby lying in the manger
wrapped in a cloth. He was so
silent and so precious. I had never
seen a baby had so pure and
innocent. Now, the child had an
even brighter almost blinding glow
surrounding his whole body.
I would have never thought a
baby born in such dirt and filth
could be so perfect and signals as
this.
Suddenly a ray of light from
heaven shone down on the infant. 1
saw shepherds coming near to him.
One offered a lamb as a gift to the
baby. The man accepted it. The
lamb stared in awe at the splendor
of the child. The shepherds knelt
before him covering their blinding
eyes.
A shepherd cried out, "Glory to
God!"
Many replied, "Praise be to God.
Our Saviour has been born
tonight!"
I flew around the newborn not
knowing why. I was filled with
peace and exultation. God's son had
been bom to save the world on this
special night.
DEAR SANTA,
I would like a Winnie the Pooh
toy. For my dad I would like new
pants.
