Most often, on the Sunday preceding Epiphany (Jan 6), I focus on that celebration rather than Christmas 2.
EPIPHANY
Brightly shining star
drawing wise men from the east
portends a new realm.
Gold, frankincense, myrrh
offered in homage to one
born to disrupt us.
The wise men depart
warned in a dream to go home
by another road.
Likewise warned by night
Joseph, Mary and child flee
paranoid Herod.
These refugees lived
safely and free in Egypt
not in detention.
