Gleaming gold brought one, -
Shining gold for royalty,
Ruler of the All !

Frankincense brought one, -
Incense for divinity,
Offer it incense!

Bitter myrrh brought one, -
Myrrh stands for mortality,
Vulnerable man !

Very unique gifts
Offer the three wise magi,
To the Jesus Child.

How knew the three kings
That gold, myrrh and frankincense
Are the perfect gifts?

Yes, -how knew they? Could it be they knew by revelation, as Isaiah knew: " He was despised and rejected of men, etc. I say so. Good poem; to bring out the sighnificance of the gifts
