Gifts Of The Magi Far off in the desert three camels came Atop them sat three astrologers of fame The starship led them through the hot burning sand To where the baby lay in this strange land They carried gifts for this baby king Approaching the stable they heard choir angels sing Their charts told them where he would be Also the starship helped the astrologers three Entering the stable where the baby lay Hearing the animal's soft, soothing bray Singing the tiny one to sleep While mom and dad their watch did keep They knelt before the infant king Giving him the gifts they did bring.

Striking and odd at the same time.a starship led them through the hot burning sand? Some Jews have told me something similar once! but never through the power of poetry I will say! It really takes your breathe away just reading it !Very entertaining!
