LITTLE SAVIOUR
On a dark, moonless night,
The wind blew with furious might,
As the vast river filled,
Testing the truth of the ones who willed
Darkness had encroached their life,
The brave man and his wife,
Somehow did they manage to cope,
For they held on to their hope
Two pairs of eyes witnessed cruelty,
A plea of cry they gave their deity,
The All-Pervading, Omniscient One,
He who took birth as their son
A bright light rose in the dark prison,
For finally had the saviour risen,
To free the world from shackles bound,
Relieving people all around
The beautiful son with skin of rain cloud,
Perfect little gurgle, neither soft not loud,
Parting with Him would cause pain,
But the baby would stand to gain.
Heartbroken mother teared,
Distressed father feared,
Hugging their newborn one last time,
As they felt time invisibly chime.
A snake who protected all from harm,
As the father crossed the river with alarm,
He would carry on with the determined behaviour,
For with him was the Little Saviour
