Easter Outlook Poem by louis rams

He would forgive his enemies that would crucify him
Just to take away our sins.
At the age of twelve he could not be found
As JOSEPH and MARY searched the town
From door to door, they would go- where he went they did not know.
Then the thought entered MARY S mind, there was a door they did not try.
They opened the doors to the temple and there he stood
Talking with scholars and rabbi s at the far end
As a rabbi approached who was a friend.
Asking JOSEPH: which rabbi taught him, that so much he has learned?
JOSEPH answered just his mother MARY who has shown him the word!
When JESUS approached then JOSEPH angrily said:
Why did you not tell us where you were going? We searched the
Entire town looking for you!
When JESUS calmly said: where else would I be if not in my father s house!
This is where it really began- where humanity would understand.
From that, moment on the world would come to know
The love for GOD that he would show.
A faith stronger than the strongest metal known to man
So that humanity could see and understand.
Just like JOSEPH a carpenter he would become
However, his true life was yet to come.
He preached the word of his father to all that would listen
Yet he knew something was missing.
He then told mother MARY that he had to go
And this in her heart she did know.
Many obstacles he found in his way, but from his path, he would not stray.
He became an angler of men, from that point on it would never end.
Billions of people listen to his words, and in every country, he is heard.
