Behold a star among animals...

Angels safeguard a family poor but with a treasure of myrrh. A choir of pastors. And in the middst of them, You.

    I looked at the galaxies,

    as far off as birds

    that fly

    between spheres of light

     

    Messages of the God who is there?

    Or embers only

    of an ordinary flame  

    that returns to dust

    and ash?

     

    Behold a star

    among animals.

    Angels safeguard 

    a family poor

    but with a treasure of myrrh.

    A choir of pastors.

    And in the middst of them, You.

     

    Only You, Jesus,

    because everything leads to You,

    to the beginning and the end

    of the stars.

    New heavens

    and new Earth.

     

    Pedro Tarquis, translated from Spanish.
