Running On Joy

I bless you to run
With the joy
Of one who has heard
The best news ever.

Like the shepherds,
The honorees
Of the heavenly announcement
Of good news of great joy
Who said,
“Let’s go and see …”
And ran to find the baby,
May the joy of the angels’ announcement
Fuel your sprint
To the manger today,

And may you see for yourself
The wonder of the newborn king.
