JOSIE'S POEMS
Christmas Poems

REMEMBER CHRIST
IN CHRISTMAS
By Josie Whitehead
Let’s remember Christ in Christmas
As we celebrate his birth.
We’ll think about the life he led
In his days upon this earth.
He was born, not as a rich man,
Or in a palace like a king,
Yet, for his welcome to our world
God’s angels came to sing.
His goals were not as ours are -
To pass exams at school.
He never owned a house in fact,
And never came to rule.
His parents both were poor folk.
His father worked with wood
And Jesus was a carpenter,
A trade considered good.
* He never travelled far from home
As people do today.
He spoke of love and caring,
And he taught us how to pray.
These words which Jesus taught us,
That should fill our human minds,
Are: 'Love your neighbour as yourself
And care for all mankind.'

* There are 'missing years' of Jesus life, from the age of 12 to about 28, so perhaps he did travel far, but as it is not recorded in the Bible, we do not really know - or do you know? Josie
