the silent witnesses
their fruit anointing
pouring out, a blessing
the lamps, the kingdoms
the olive tree sentries
watching the holy family
their journey to Bethlehem
the trees standing there
bearing the fruit
the olives, the oil,
the olive trees of the valley
there at the beginning
silent witnesses, sentries
to the holy family’s journey
