In over thirty years of Nativity pageants I have experienced the range.
One year the wise men
Played by the parish triplets
Were joined at the manger
By their best friend
Herod.
Another year
In a parish
With no children
The wise folk
Came down the aisle
In feathers and bells
As Native American dancers.
One couple was so disturbed
They left the parish
Took their gourmet cookware
From the parish kitchen.
This meant
Parish dinners were potlucks
from then on.
Wisdom comes
In many forms.
