Two Magi and A Swan

Two Magi and A Swan

They travelled so far
guided by light
to see this sight
baby held
by Mother tight

old King reverence bent knee
another I couldn’t see
hidden
for the artist
there

amongst them stood a Prince
pr’aps Son of the King
gazing not in adoration
but at
Me

telling the world
I am here

and from below
His robes
a Swan’s neck
curved

NB if you want a copy of 'The Doctor, The Plutocrat, and The Mendacious Minister' (paperback signed) then it is cheaper to buy it from me than the American publishers, unless you live in France. From me it will cost you either, £9.99, 11.50euros, or 17US dollars. All prices include postage. For other currencies please ask.
