A Snapshot to Remember!

A Snapshot to Remember

What a scene! What a shapshot! What a picture!
At Bethlehem's Church of The Nativity.
Two Israeli soldiers carrying a make-shift stretcher,
On which was riding their wounded Arab enemy.

Will this "snapshot to remember"
Make the world's front page?
That is an action yet to be tendered,
But what a compassionate sight, I saw today.

World Leaders! Politicians! Religious persons too!
Cherish this example of mercy and compassion
And maybe, just maybe, we can finally stop
This never-ending Esau/Jacob family feud!
