Douglas Kandel Poet Rhyme

Uncover

Wow, 2006 is rapidly becoming 
a slice of history.So many things
have been added to the story.
Some good, some not so much,
but it certainly hasn't been boring.

What about you.... what did you discover?
Was there a monumental truth that you
finally did uncover?Like you really should
switch from coffee to tea and "Cousin
Eddy" is truly the life of the party.

Or that Donner's name is not really
Donner at all, but it is Donder instead.
Bet he would respond to either name
when called.That it is all right to wear
light brown with black and boomerangs
do not always come back.That there are 
right bowers and left bowers but the best 
of all is Jack.

That eating fat is ok but saturated is not.
Of that, one certainly can't eat alot.
Or that a baby makin' machine Britney
Spears may be, but a role model she is not.

Well, I'm sure this list could go on and on.
But I want to conclude this before the entire
year is gone.You can quickly see that many 
of these are as corny as cheese, but I have 
one last one much more important than these.

If your life were a book, this epiphany would 
most certainly be the beginning of a new chapter.
It would take the doldrums away, give your life
meaning and purpose.... no more a circus.

Well, without further ado, the one that will make
your life anew.The King of Kings was born on
Christmas morn...... all forlorn ...perfect picture
 of humility.Lived here to show us how to love,
a gift from above.Loved us and showed us how 
to live.Died .... horribly, to show us just how much.
Rose again so hundreds could see and touch.

This was no ordinary man.....life, death or even birth.
In fact, it was this perfect sacrifice that proved our worth.
Oh how very valuable we must be for this sinless
man to die so cruelly upon a tree.Thank you Emmanuel
 for rescuing us from the pits of hell and help us to
appreciate this "gift" enough to tell others that the offer
is available to them as well.
