This Advent an Angel from high came to see me,
With words of wisdom from atop our Christmas tree.
“No anti-humanity during this season,
Just peace and compassion with soulful reason.”
To be not against everything but for something,
To seek grace for all and peace for thyself.
No angry tirades festering thoughts negative,
Only deep introspection to think positive.
A brief hiatus from our exclusive curse,
To celebrate this time with inclusive verse.
Be glad, thankful and joyful for all that is good,
Know that we all suffer challenges in brotherhood.
This sabbatical respite may even endure,
To be the mantra for our lives evermore!
