A Song 194

Shawled in psalms
nuns croon Silent Night;
Lady, Old Man
bow in benediction,
brushing hurting mosquitos,
at the Cradle of Compassion,
under Karuna banyan
in bells and candles;
winds tickle bells,
stars lights candles,
moonlight the manger,
Cadbury Gems drop in nests,
Cadbury Silks on street kids.
Cross is far away,
Merry,
Lady, Old Man,
pray, 
to mobile tunes
of church bells
on Karuna Way.
