Alex beams as he shows his Christmas card--
The prisoner artist, with soft eyes,
has to peer beyond to see
behind bars
Happy garland embraces think branches,
bright lights shining
behind bars.
Kairos moment! When I see
that emblazoned tree is,
behind bars.
Alex gives a present of hope
to us--who put him
behind bars.
Merry Christmas to all and
may all see the Light.
