a night with a white lamb

a religious poem

they pushed him in the dark

in the pen’s corner near the wall

he was whining faintly like any other white lamb

unmarked not in his place

 

an angel sat around him

each angel can fight a hundred devils

each angel has a hundred pairs of arms

 

enclosed in the heavy night

his heart like a vigil lamp

cast its light at one thousand miles

one thousand youngsters received the first communion

 

he stood awake

the next day they marked him

letting him free among the other ten lambs

it was snowing slowly for ten hours

over the land covered with fresh wool

Beautiful...surrealistic Nativity....

Thanks, actually it is a combination between Nativity and Easter.
