The Gospel Writers

Matthew penned the first gospel
from where we read of God’s son
from being a collector of taxes
this disciple to Jesus did run

The shortest gospel of them all
was written by the disciple Mark
who showed the way to God
was seeing the light from the dark

The good physician Dr Luke
did write the gospel story
about Jesus and His love
pointing the way to be holy

The one who Jesus loved
John, which was his name
who stood with Jesus mother
at the savours cross of shame

Hello Gordon, I like the way you wrote a poem about the Four Evangelists that wrote about Jesus and his life. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, authors who attributed with the creation of the four Gospel accounts in the New Testament. thank you for taking your time and reading my poem. xox~ Linda
