“IN THE SILENCE OF THE NIGHT”

‘CHRISTMAS FOREVER’

 In the silence of the night,
‘Our Messenger’ was born under a star bright,
And the world was changed forever,
Faith; belief in a love, once found,
never to sever,
A tiny child crying in the night,
To set humanity unto a path of right,
With wisdom far beyond his years, he grew,
He walked, and taught, and gave the world
thoughts so new,
Examples filled with kindness, compassion,
love for each other,
And a promise in death, for Life Everlasting,
known then only to his mother,
And so, in a world so far away,
in a time so long ago,
Hope for humanity was raised to its highest height;
the message: sin forgo,
Good deeds to be spread far and wide,
Like the oceans sharing their flowing tide,
Who would ever believe the power of love
could hold such might?
And, be born too all in a stable small,
“IN THE SILENCE OF THE NIGHT”

 A BLESSED CHRISTMAS TO ALL
