The Last Gift, shadorma series

the last gift 
found hidden behind
the Christmas 
tree, wrapped in
brown paper, a tag that reads 
open me, now, please

no one knew
from where this gift came
what secrets
lie within?
the red ribbon opens itself
to reveal...

sweet music—
songs of peace and joy,
compassion,
unity,
for all humans from above
sent with love
