Goodwill to all men,
Is more poignant this year,
As Christian sentiment,
It comes as a shock,
With what is going on in the world.
***
Take a moment,
Just this Christmas,
Spare a thought,
For those in Kyiv,
Who are under the barrage of war.
***
How can a country,
That claims to be Christian,
Act in this way,
Against another county,
Against goodwill to all men.
***
Take a second,
And give a prayer,
Keep in your mind,
All those out there,
And always give goodwill to all humans.
