I love walking my dog this time of night.
It's dark and the air is cool and crisp.
But the holiday lights are up, and they break the darkness
like a galaxy of stars
breaking through a mist.
Then I turn a corner and sigh.
I see a neighbor's manger scene...
Virgin and Christ Child
with Joseph nearby.
Serene. Such a beautiful mein.
Alone with my thoughts, even my dog seems to sense my shift.
In the peacefulness of the moment I pause and pray.
Then my soul seems to lift
and we're quietly on our way.
