We made room for you, remembering The over-filled, inhospitable Inn, With half the world now persecuted, homeless, The ordered ways destroyed, and wars to win. No gifts come, for kings are without their kingdom, Necessity controls the shepherds' shears, But you have brought your own wealth, all-providing, Of golden love, and innocence, and tears. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...PORT OF EMBARKATION by RANDALL JARRELL GREATER GRANDEUR by ROBINSON JEFFERS FAMILY GROUP by ARCHIBALD MACLEISH THE BRITISH COUNTRYSIDE IN PICTURES by JAMES MCMICHAEL READING MY POEMS FROM WORLD WAR II by WILLIAM MEREDITH ON PLOUGHING by EVELYN D.
