A single voice, a Christmas Carol, a song of Stillness and Peace;
Another voice, and many more singing different words to a familiar tune.
Guns stopped, silenced by shared humanity and blended harmonies; peace loudly proclaimed by handshakes, shared smokes, and songs while war stopped for the Eve and Day to celebrate a birth.
Moments out of time; whose were the first voices raised in song, and whose the first gunfire when Day was Done, and why start up again?
