Noel

Der Weihnachtsfriede von 1914, Public Domain

Frost
A shot in the distance
Cold quiet of nameless comrades

Lost
Frosty haze of war
Surviving a winter no-man’s land

Noel
Day of giving
No stockings to hang by the trench-side

Banner
A single tree
Lit up through desolation

Truce
Remember, we’re human
Playing games across field of death

Tomorrow
A shadow not anticipated
Where new friends through snow must part
