For bohemians everywhere

H Joan Chaplin – Moonsilver (1979)

[From ‘Bohemian Bagatelle‘, published 1979 by the Bohemians]

 

MOONSILVER

 

A night made of magic

Moonsilver and gold,

A night which prophets

Had often foretold.

 

The stars shining brightly

In Heaven above

Brought news to the earth

That God is Love.

 

In Bethlehem’s Stable

This God of Love lies,

Babe in a Manger

In earthly guise.

 

All nations may come in

Through that stable door,

At the dear Babe’s Crib

Kneel and adore.

 

H. Joan Chaplin
