Poem - The Gift

The Gift 
By: Marlon Salem Gruezo-Bondroff

In the stillness of a snowy eve,
Where twinkling lights make hearts believe,
A gift descends from the skies above,
Peace, wrapped in the warmth of love.

Amidst the songs and joyful cheer,
A clear message, we hold so dear,
That peace is Christmas' true embrace,
A gentle touch, a saving grace.

No treasure found in an earthly store,
Can match the peace we all adore,
It soothes the soul, it calms the mind,
A gift from heaven, pure and kind.

As families gather, candles glow,
And winter winds begin to blow,
We celebrate this gift so bright,
Peace, the star in our silent night.

In every heart, let peace entwine,
Let us share this gift  divine, 
For Christmas brings this truth so  clear,
Peace is the gift we hold most dear.
