I have seen this poem on here last year, but can not find it. Would anyone of you have it and please share. I would like to use it in a Christmas card.
Three wise men came that Christmas night
With gifts of myrrh and gold
To bow before the wondrous Child
His greatness to behold
A little shepherdess nearby
Yearned to kneel and pay
Her homage to the newborn king
On this the Child's birthday
No gift had she to offer him
No gift but tears of pain
Which fell like pearls to the ground
As beads in a holy chain
A flower sprang up beneath her feet
As white as her pure brow
She plucked it up with eager handsAnd on its breathed a vow
She knelt before the Child's crib
In love and agony
His holy hand reached for the flower
And touched it childishly
At once its heart became pale pink
This flower the Christ Child chose
It blooms throughout the holy days
And is called the Christmas Rose.
Poem for the pink Christmas rose
