Christmas in Uzbekistan

Title: Christmas in Uzbekistan

Outside the snow was gently falling,
A foreign land, so unfamiliar and sprawling.
Langston Hughes, a writer gifted and bright,
Embarked on a journey that would forever ignite.

Amidst the celebrations of Christmas cheer,
He found himself in a land so far, so near.
A different culture, traditions rich and strong,
Yet the essence of love remained where he belonged.

In the heart of Uzbekistan, where beauty unfolds,
Hughes discovered a lesson, timeless and bold.
For though customs and languages may vary,
The spirit of Christmas unites us, contrary.

He witnessed the joy, the laughter, the dance,
Of a community coming together, in a joyous trance.
For it mattered not the creed or the race,
But the love in each heart and the kindness they’d embrace.

Through vibrant markets, he strolled with delight,
Witnessing the unity that shone so bright.
Men, women, and children, rejoicing as one,
In a land so distant, but truly their own.

With each encounter, a story was told,
Of unity and love that never grows old.
And as Langston Hughes witnessed this glorious sight,
He discovered the true meaning of Christmas that night.
