Poetry Joy, Peace and Love

Angel Wings,
And Christmas Trees,
Winter is in the air,
Children's laughter,
Fireside chatter,
Its the season that matters

The gift that was given,
In love and hope driven,
Make this a special time,
A star light sparkle lit up the sky
And wise men traveled from afar,
Doesn't seem right that men today,
Do not understand,
The hope and joy of love everlasting,
In war they want to fight,
The peace of the gift, and the joy of the might,
Will not light up the sky,
For hope ever lasting, in the greatest gift of all
In forgotten by some, Remembered by some,
The hope and fear of all the years,
Comes tumbling down to this,
The understanding of the men,
What victory do they wish?
For the greatest gift of all is not of war and men,
But of love, joy, and peace between all of humankind.

Remember this: Remember this,
For unto them a small child was born,
To give the joy and love and peace,
