Just One Star

Back in the throne room of heaven, plans were being made to announce the birth of God's Son on earth. Micheal, the archangel, had just finished describing his great heavenly display of comets and falling stars.
Gabriel went on with his musical plans- a great angelic choir of tens of thousands of voices, tuned with heaven's finest adn latest harmonies, ready to serenade the earth.
But God interrupted their conversation. "No," He said, "that's not really what I had in mind. I planned a small family gathering in Bethleham, actually. We don't need all those trimmings."
"But... all my stars...." said Micheal. 'What will I do with them?"
"And my music," Gabriel added.
Just then Jesus stepped through the pearly gates, out onto the red carpet of time, and started down the spiral stairway of stars.
Micheal pleaded, "Father, let us do something, please! He simply can't go unannounced!"
"Well, all right," God said, "Gabriel, a few angels... and Micheal, just one star."
