Artist unknown, after M.C. Escher Noel Tableau Verse 1 Winter tableau while Frost lights the still forms, Lanterns hold soft glow, Shepherds lean in close As stars paint the straw, Silence shapes the night. Verse 2 Manger tableau rests, New babe warms the hay, Oxen stand so still, Mary folds in light, Joseph guards their hush, Angels hold the dawn, ----- Tableau form created by Emily Romano , shared with the DVerse Poets Pu b, table for six. ©2025 Christopher Reilley  I would love to know what you thought about this piece.  Please consider leaving a comment.
