Oblivious


as the glory of God
illuminates the night
and shepherds
tremble
before angelic choirs

the rest of the world
remains oblivious

whilst a young mother
and an awestruck father
take in the miracle
and the mystery

the rest of the world
continues unaware
unaware
that everything
just changed

a gift of Love
lies sleeping in the straw

the greatness of God
takes baby small breaths
in the hay

the Prince of Peace
peacefully sleeps

God has come

God has come
to us

and almost no-one
notices
