1105 Three Wise Men In Search Of Truth Poem by John Knight
1105 Three Wise Men In Search Of Truth
They were very very important men
In their own Country - very important
However when you leave your comfort zone
Get out on the road - then you are.....
Just anybody - a Fellow Traveller!
How come a Russian - A Chinaman
And a Japanese - found themselves
Travelling together westwards?
They had met - each with some servants
At the Caravan Watering Place
In West Russia - All with the same story.
Prince Vladmir Karsof - from Russia
Prince Molo Soma - from China
Prince Hikmo Yoko - from Japan.
They had all seen a special star
Heralding the birth of a Great King.
I first saw it four months ago
Said Hikmo - Three months said Molo
Just two months said Vladmir.
We will be safer together
Said Hikmo - so it was agreed.
They continued to follow the star
Travelling evening and night
To avoid the Sun's midday heat.
The Camel Servants grumbled
Wanting more rest and more money.
Towns were unfriendly - Villages dirty
A hard time we had of it.
At last we came to a cool valley
With a running stream and cool trees
Still the star moved on - but we stopped
To confer together and ask why?
We were an educated trio
You could almost call us Wise Men!
We found ways of communicating.
What was the goal of our journey?
The star fortold the Birth of a King
We had come to pay our respects.
And present apt gifts. Vladmir - Gold
Molo - Frankincense - Hikmo - Mhyrrh.
The star stopped - close to the Palace.
Herod - recognising their breeding
Recieved them with graciousness.
When they explained their mission
Herod tried to hide his concern.
A King how interesting - He said
He is not here - but when you find him
Come back and tell me where he is!
The three Princes - went a short distance
The star had stopped over a small house
Which was attached to a workshop.
They entered and spoke to Mary
Who was playing with a young boy.
She didn't seem phased and called Joseph.
He came from his carpenter's workshop.
Visitors - she said - I'll bring some food.
They looked at Jesus and recognised
Not only Royalty - but Deity!
The enjoyed the food and the wine.
I have brought some GOLD - said Vladmir
Because your Son is a Great King.
I have brought FRANKINCENSE - said Molo
Because he is Holy and a Gift from God
I have brought some MHYRRH - said Hikmo.
He looked embarassed and continued
Mhyrrh - because your Son will Suffer.
Thank you - said Mary - I understand.
Jesus Bar Joseph is very very special
God has a very significant purpose for Him.
Vladmir and Molo and Hikmo
Just looked at JESUS and at each other.
They didn't speak - but they understood!
A nice narrative of birth of Jesus, which certainly contains some hidden lessons, though few have tried to solve the significance of this symbolic narrative of three wise men, I hope the second coming will be more potent and full of glory, thanks for sharing!
