JOSIE'S POEMS
Christmas
Performance Poems
By Josie Whitehead
This is a lovely Poem for Performance for your class
as are lots of my Christmas Poems, as you'll know
1st person and 1st wise man
'Tell me now, you three wise men,
Have you travelled far?'
'Oh yes, we’ve travelled many days
Following that star.'
2nd wise man
'We’ve travelled over desert sand
By night and by the day.
We want to get to Bethlehem.
Are we going the right way?'
3rd wise man
'There’s a reason why we’re going there:
We’ve gifts we must bestow.
A babe’s been born in Bethlehem -
God’s son, we’ll have you know.'
2nd person
'Well, travel on along this road.
The town lies straight ahead
And in a stable you will find
The baby in his bed.'
1st Narrator
The three wise men and camels
Went quickly on their way,
But angels came to warn them
To return another way.
1st and 2nd Angel
'King Herod is a jealous man
And Jesus he’ll destroy.'
'Go back along another route.
Say nothing of this boy.'
2nd Narrator
When they arrived in Bethlehem
They found where Jesus lay.
And, after leaving precious gifts,
Returned a different way.
