A Christmas Poem


In the bleak midwinter
The Christ Child again 
asks to enter into our hearts
and melt the ice that insists 
on forming there
against our better judgment-- 
our attempts at thawing
only serving to set it afire
in a soul-consuming explosion--
our attempts at cooling 
turning it once again
to ice.
