Mansuetude ... Break

Today's word is "mansuetude" ... MAN-swi-tood ... mildness; gentleness. (Dictionary.com)

Break
He came, in mansuetude,
     unexpectedly, although he was
          expected.
In glory, yet not glorified.
     By angel anthems brought 
          to light.
Carrying that self-same light into
     our darkness,
Lifting night for a moment
     so that we would know,
          our God is here and all
               is and will be well.
