Son Rise!

This poem reflects on the celestial and spiritual significance of the moment 2,000 years ago when the Son, symbolized by Christ, rose in Virgo, the Virgin.

When the Son rose in Virgo, the stars held their breath,
A virgin's soft whisper foretold life from death.
The heavens aligned in a tale long foretold,
A light to the weary, more precious than gold.

In the cradle of night, the cosmos did sing,
Of shepherds and sages and gifts for a King.
The lion lay still, the harvest stood near,
As love's gentle dawn cast out every fear.
