Christmas Poem by Nancy Unks

Star

of
my life
Jesus Christ born in innocence
Tempted
like me to fear, covet, complain,
to criticism, cynicism, apathy, doubt.
Yet remaining
Perfect
He suffered my sentence and died,
then rose to shining, glorious, infinite life.
Now he’s welcoming me, even guilty me, to life,
to his perfect and wonderful, holy, heavenly home.
