Nov. 29, 2005 - The rest of my unnamed Christmas poem
"Where did this come from?"
asked the tall man.
The girl ran and picked up,
a bear that was tan.
The mice hadn't got much,
but the family was happy.
The little boy cried,
"I feel all clappy!"
And then, right there,
they knelt and they praised
the one who had come
to the earth to be raised.
The small mouse was puzzled.
But his questions were answered,
when the man told his children,
of the earth God had entered.
He told them how Jesus,
had been born in a manger.
How, in that time,
Joseph had been a stranger.
The children sat listening,
as the man told the story,
Of Christs crucifixion,
that was bloody and gory.
The mouse started crying
"Oh, woe is me,
Jesus Christ died
to set you and me free!"
"I already know that,
we are both sinners.
But only with Gods help,
can we both be winners!"
The mouse did a victory dance,
right then and there,
and then knelt with the family,
as they finished their prayer.
That night the poor family,
felt rich as kings.
Though the gifts were few,
they had many things.
They were together,
and had a few presents.
But best of all,
they felt the Lords presence.
And that night also,
a small little mouse,
was shown the light,
by THE MAN of the house.
That is the conclusion to my poem. My mother insisted on telling me that a mouse can't be saved, but, as I told her, it is just a story.
(And you never know, someday I could be a famous poet!)

I love that poem! I think it is great, and you have a terrific imagination! I am glad you had a good Thanksgiving too, but I know what you mean about the chips before hand! Whenever we take our kids to my parents for dinner, we have strict instructions about no food before dinner, otherwise my kids won't eat.
Thanks for checking out my blog and the bath bombs and soap! I am working on the groovy gal one, I have to pick out the scent and go from there. I have to figure out colours too, so if you have any ideas, let me know! Pink sugar smells like candy floss, but much nicer. The official description is "notes of pink cotton candy, sweet lemon drops, raspberries and fig leaves, with a spicy-fruity-floral middle that includes fig leaves, orange and lily of the valley, atop a base of caramel, sweet vanilla, woods and powder notes."
What that all means, I don't know, but I can finally pick these scents out in the different fragrances! Talk to you soon, and I look forward to more of your poetry!
Blessings,
Ellen
