Noel - by Thomas Carlisle
Noel No quiet child whose cradle gently sways promising peaceful dreams for all who love him. He rocks the stable with Magnificats . He scatters the proud. He helps the lowly rise. His sword cuts through the adamants of deceit. His cry unsettles the victimizers and the crucifiers and all the extortionate predators of his kin. And Herod will not be the only one to try to stop his mouth.
