And genuflected in homage 
To the hope born of despair 
Sent to save us from ourselves.

We should celebrate the difference now,
no care the what, the why, the how,
and it matters not how the dice may fall
for above, watches one that loves us all.

And he made oh, so many things,
the little bird that sweetly sings,
the phospher sea, the blue of sky
the seasons passing sweetly by.

So we must celebrate this life,
heal wounds and banish war and strife,
unbind the chains of difference,
for our span is only lightly lent.
Beccy - UK

The marked out way ahead, as dawn shines through
For us to know we live in peace on earth.

It's a miracle, don't you see how wonderful a birth can be?
Joining past, present, future too, prompting angels to take flight
Instructing to shepherd not to flee but
Facing the future as it was and will always be.

Let us clear a path of peace in the season’s alabaster skies

Across the world, darkness falls
Moving slow from east to west
The world awaits and hearts elate
At signs of the Christ child's birth.

The saviour's born this Christmas morn.
Awake new world and rejoice.

As love and joy surround us,
This season serves to remind
No color skin matters to Him.
Peace on Earth! Goodwill to men!

A lonely little candle glowing
bravely casting flickering light
between shadows of a painfully dark world
defining, defying the night
deeper into the wick
leaving a meager flame struggling to live 
But even a little candle deserves great honor
for “a candle only shines in the dark.”
Jill Martin - USA

This season, may we recall some lesson [build a longer table]
of some Middle Eastern family or other, needing shelter some special night
some time ago? For peace grows in homes, hearts [not a higher fence];
there has never been a scarcity of love in this world. Only its application."

"Esta estacion, podemos recordar alguna leccion [construimos una mesa mas larga]
de alguna familia u otra, necesitando refugio alguna noche especial,
hace un tiempo? Por paz crece en hogares y corazones, [no una cerca mas alta]
y nunca ha sido una escasez de amor en esto mundo. Solo en su applicacion."
Marie Anzalone �" Guatemala

Concordance surges into flight
A sheathing wall of golden white

Craig, many thanks for all the editing work you did (as ever) for this year's Collaboration, the task takes hours of fidgeting and fetching, i certainly wouldn't have the patience or skills for it.

As to the verses sent to us: aren't they glorious, beautiful; sometimes heart.breaking and at other times amusing or sharp as a blade but always, utterly appropriate! If everyone walking this Earth got together in the way people have here in the CAfe.. think of how it might be... sighhhh!
