Jesus a Poem For Our Grandkids

JESUS A Poem for our granchildren-so-very-beloved! Aug. 1, 2020 (c) sally young eslinger ***. ****. ****. *** Jesus is better than a cherry icee (in Its paper cup) that eventually leaks as you lick, Drizzling, noticeably red, nearly like a perfect rose Set on your palm and wrist, cool, sweet to love. Jesus is better than grabbed handfuls of caramel-popped corn You get from the giant bowl in your Mother’s lap beside you —handful by handful, great! Like a charm discovered, sticky on lips and palms. Jesus is more and better than craved sugar in A swirled rainbow around and atop a paper cone... A sticky, sweet, swept-up wrap of cotton candy To delight your taste and all summer memories! Jesus is held out to you by smiling family, who Know he is so magnificient and will stick to you, too. Jesus will stay upon your lips, your heart, your spirit forever. There is NO place away from his help or joy. His Love is! ...All this is a promise God keeps. —————————————————
