The babe in the manger
was not the first time God
walked on the earth,
shared breath with creation, with man
It was the Garden, the holy garden
when God and Adam, and Eve
were together, able to see
and be seen, to feel the warmth
of God with them in person
before the fall, the shame,
the stain of the first sin
breaking the bond
the iniquity plain
Never the same
until the Father was the Son
and Jesus was born in Bethlehem
