Or what gifts in death be reward,
Whatever path your faith has trod,
What word and face you use for God.

The wonders of most holy night,
Geographically does not denote,
Why your Savior born was white.

Intrinsic and intertwined Mother Nature,
Seems to move ahead with her own set of plans,
Not needing a higher-powered kind favor.
