Christmas Night...

An ordinary night with ordinary sheep

and ordinary shepherds.

And were it not for a God

who loves to hook "extra"

on the front of the ordinary

the night would have gone unnoticed.

The sheep would have been forgotten,

and the shepherds would have slept the night away.

But God dances amidst the common.

And that night, he did a waltz.
