Donkey Poem

Last one I promise.

What the Donkey saw.

No room in the inn, of course
And not that much in the stable
What with the shepherds, Magi, Mary
Joseph, the heavenly host-
Not to mention the baby
Using our manger as a cot
You couldn't have squeezed another cherub in
For love nor money.

Still in spite of the over crowding
I did my best to make them feel wanted.
I could see the baby and I
Would be going places together.
