World War II: Van Engelen Family Story -- Leo's Christmas Poem


Figure 1.-- Leo passed his idle time by writing poems. He had a flair for it. Those poems and especially his Christmas 1944 poem described his own personal feelings, shared by everybody, which I now want to share with you. It still brings a tear to my eyes.
