Dreams in Bethlehem*
by Roque Ferriols, SJ
What are your dreams my little king,
asleep on the manger straw?
Are you dreaming of play
'mid stars in a swing
That cherubs rock to and fro?
But from his cheek rolls a little tear
and angels whisper in my ear,
"He is dreaming of saving you."
(*From Fr. Eric Castro AB Pre Div 1992)
