A CERTAIN DAY IN NOVEMBER

A certain day in November
Little queen was tired having to suffer
She carried in her young body
A being that the world wanted to see.
Tired but with much love and care
She gave birth late in the evening
A small boy to his mother dear
Whose fate was decided in God's thinking.
Dad the hero learnt about the event
What a joy and what an excitement
That again he had brought one more being
In the great and big world of the living.
Then he said "His name is Simeon"
Luke chapter 2, the prophet Simeon
And he said this one too will not die
Until he comes to meet God's Messiah
Life started with uncertainties but faith
Unconscious, God watching over his fate
As he grew in stature and in force
Untill today when he's plus one year old
That day in November,
This day in November
Remains the greatest day on the calendar
For little boy whose life is led and guided
By the God who holds it in His Hand.
